So, what headphones are the fastest? Size, type and price are no concern as I'm not going to buy them(at least for now).

My Alessandro MS-Pros are damn fast, but there just have to be faster phones out there.

From what I've read, the Qualia.

Why Ferrari headphones are, of course! Duh.

Fastest Headphones In THE WORLD!

ROFL Where can I get a pair?

You are better off going to the local butcher and taping some kidneys to your face.

 

[MacedonianHero]

Seriously, the fastest: Grados!

Headphones are not fast; diaphragms are. The less mass, the faster the response.

I notice there are no Grados on your list. Is that because of an issue with Grado or is Grado not your cup of tea?

Grado headphones are quite fast. But not the fastest.

My list?

Because they're not fast. They're bright. Common misconception.

Except for the HP-1000. Those aren't bright. But they aint fast either.
