I can’t say that I like the headphones that people call “good.” I have heard a number of high-class phones, including the one that I was told cost over 5 thousands dollars and I was not impressed what I heard. Some people suggest the while I used those ‘expansive” and presumably high quality headphones I should be unit the high quality headphone amplifiers. With the headphone amplifiers I have even less luck them with headphones. None of the headphone-dedicated amplifiers that I heard performed acceptable.

Ironically the best would that I recognize that I heard form the heard-phone is the one that do not annoys me and this sound comes from a very moderate systems… and without any headphone amplifiers. At the sores I use invariably my favorite Panasonic SL-CT470. It is old cheap Walkman that does not have a lot of so-called resolution but for whatever reasons it is superbly musical. I so love it that I own 5 of those units, pleased everywhere; work, home, cars and so on… A far as headphone concern I trued few of them but I always return to not particularly imprecise Audio-Technica ATH-M40FS. For whatever it worth I have heard a lot of music on this “system” and I do feel very comfortable to continue to use it indefinitely.

Some people believe the headphones in a way conflict with “big speakers” listing habits. I do not think so, or at least I do not feel so. If you listen music then what is the difference how we hear it if you know “how” to hear it? If we listen the dissected sounds coming from our playback then… what the reasons to think what we think in this case….?
