… have I reached the end of the bell curve? Is this enlightenment? In all seriousness, I’m currently just very happy with my current collection. I truly adore the Sundara, and the Edition XS is also great. The DT 770 Pro is an excellent daily driver due to its comfort over long sessions, and the ATH-AD500X is a fun headphone for just laid back listening.
Headphone: HD600(Sidegrade from HD660S) couldn’t stand how bright they were coming from the 660S but after my brain adjusted to them, they became my daily drivers, they just sound so right
IEM: Moondrop Kato
AMP: Feliks Echo Mk2
