For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?

After the Cookers Quintet, Roon/Qobuz recommended a song from this album. I clicked through to the album and am really enjoying this. Recommend it.

Roon/Qobuz => Yggy + GS2 => Vali 3 => HD660S2

Try electrostatic (if you haven't already). Perhaps the Stax SR-L700 mk2. It's in that price range you mentioned.

Cheers!
God point! I haven't tried electrostatics, and should definitely hear what they have to offer. The L700-MKII is not crazy expensive here either, which is nice. Thanks for the reminder :)

@Lindholdt On the harder rock side, what do you think of Volbeat from Denmark? I recently been listening to them.

The guitar solo around the 2 min mark on Loa's Crossroad blew me away...however the segue to bagpipes was kind of weird...



And Last Day Under the Sun was getting some airplay on US rock stations.


I like them quite a bit, and have linked them a few times earlier in this tread as well :)
Seal the deal and let's Boogie (2016) was a turning point for me, though, and I do prefer their older albums. Lets Boogie is still good, I just think the earlier stuff is better.
I've heard their 2007, 2008 and 2010 albums quite a lot, have them in physical copies as well, and still give them a spin in the CD player from time to time.

Not a problem at all...I would never have thought I would be as excited listening to new headphones as when I listened to music with my first TOTL headphones. It happened with electrostatic, completely something different...clarity you can't imagine. I was going to buy Hifiman HE1000SE or Stealth, but I just changed my mind and bought CRBN instead...and it was... woooow feeling. My next stop is probably Stax L700 mk2. BTW, you can buy a very affordable amp for a starter...which I got and have no complaints about at all, Topping EHA5.
Just look at their reaction on electrostats :)


Cheers!
