Ok heres the story.
I,ve been reading this forum for over a year now. My first "decent" headphones Sennheiser HD497 which Im using right now. I think they sound great and dont really know how sound could improve from this point anymore.
So now I was thinking of getting a pair of better headphones.
So I took my favorite cd and the next destination was some local hifi shop. They have all kind of headphones. The ones I really wanted to test out were: Sennheiser 595, 600, same price range AGK and Grado SR80. The setup was: harman kardon cd-player with an amplifiear and x-fidelity can3 headphone amp.
But wait a minute. They all sounded almost the same as my so much cheaper Senn 497. Whats the deal?. I only noticed some really small difference in the sound.
I want to be HIFI but it seems I cant even notice difference between my headphones and high end
How much time does it take to really know the differences?.
