If I buy anything, it might be a pair of Koss ESP-9 electrostatics from the 70"s and refurb them.

I have quite a few really nice high midfi HP's (some would consider them TOTL but they're not) already, but I know for sure I'll own these eventually.

Meze Empyrean
ZMF Verite
TH-900 (sold them and want them back bad!!!)
Audeze LCD-2 unicorn
Hifiman HE-500 (always wanted to hear and own these)

I'm a hoarder and even if and when I aquire all of these, I won't get rid of what I have. It's a sickness and I'm currently seeing a specialist that deals in nothing but Headphoneitis psychosis. I'm just tired of the 80's disco 8 tracks he prescribes for me so I can heal.

I share your remorse over parting with my TH900. I might reacquire a set one day. The Verite is also on my list.

2nd the TH-900's. I sold mine some time ago and regretted it. I will definitely reacquire them at some point. My list has changed and my new list is as follows:

Sennheiser HD820
ZMF Verite (After getting the Auteurs I have to own these)
Mr. Speakers Ether Flow 2
Fostex TH-900 Mk2
Mr. Speakers Ether Flow C 1.1
ZMF Ori

Next, probably the Abyss Diana Phi to complement my 1266 Phi CC and LCD-XC.

After that it's getting to be time for some new CIEMs, don't know which yet.

Then, who knows.

Lcd2c's, I already have enough planar, but I've always wanted to try the audeze sound. Are bigger drivers better? Maybe one day my wallet will give me the opportunity to find out....

I have been basically out of the headphone game for a while after picking up a pair of $100-$150-ish closed-back headphones back in 2017. I do not have any really good open-back headphones right now. So, my next headphone purchase will probably be a pair of the Grado SR-80e or a pair of the Sennheiser HD 599.

Quickly acquiring the Z1R, HE-500, LCD-2C, then HP-3 left me very satisfied with my collection, so there's no headphones on my to-buy list. At some point I'd like to own the Sendy Aivas, but I'm not lusting after them like I was.

I do keep eyeballing my home subwoofer, and thinking about how it just doesn't match my Klipsch speakers. I feel like that 15inch sub from them would match so much better...
