Well that's how I am too. I mean, it TOOK an open mind for me to even take a chance on the HA-2, and I'm glad I did! Saved me $300. lol I'm just saying that it sounds pretty DAMN amazing, any many on here and Massdrop (etc) have agreed with that statement.
Wow 30?? And which amp/DAC do you have now??
I've spent HOURS at a time comparing headphones and amp/DACs, but it sounds like you've done MUCH more on that front than me. lol I've tried out like 7-9 headphones, and 2 different amp/DACs...............Celsus Sound Companion, and the HA-2. I also tried the Sony PHA-2, but couldn't get it to work properly, so it doesn't count. lol
Thanks!
You can check my profile for my gear, it's pretty up to date and should only be lacking the most recent arrivals I believe
Some where review units but you'll find my thoughts on those here:
