for me it was and still is the meze 109 pro

it is just perfect sounding in every aspect for me. and the treble is no issue for mye anymore. it is a fun, easy driven headphone.

    Same for me, I ‘upgraded’ to a HD660S chasing better resolution and better vocals…

    But mahn with my EQ’ed PortaPros, which I spent a loooong time trying to get a good enough EQ. They are almost perfect in everything, even though the HD660S, resolve more. There’s no other headphones to date, where if I put on a Norah Jones track, that they sing to me so soulfully with the right amount of sharpness to her voice it makes me melt…as much as my PortaPros.

    Even unequalized the PortaPros are excellent. I don’t know what magic Koss used to make these, coz mahn.

    Though some time back I was trying to recable them and accidentally burnt off the drivers solder, spoiling them😑.

    I’m looking if I can get some mulla to buy some higher end ZMF’s or HE1000 to see if I can replicate the PortaPros lush tone, but with greater resolution…but with middle of the pack ZMF’s being sold at $3000, that should take me a few years, living in a 3rd world country😅. Or maybe I found my endgame already 🤔😂
