At home I pretty much only listen to my normal stereo setup, which isn't high-end by any means (specs below). And while I like my headphones for commuting or at the office I always get put off by the fact that the music is playing in my head instead of in front of me. For electronic or pop music it doesn't bother me as much, but for anything that involves a musician or small band it really grinds my gears. Think a violin concerto, jazz, singer-songwriter stuff. On my speakers I close my eyes and the artists are in front of me. They are playing in my room. What kind of headphones should I be looking at to reach that point with headphones if that is at all possible. I'd guess its impossible with closed headphones, but what about open models?
Stereo setup:
Schiit Modi Multibit
Marantz PM-16 (premium line amplifier from the 90ties, a monster)
Scan Speak Reference Monitors
Headphones:
Oppo PM-3
Galaxy S6 or the PM-16
