For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?
Still home alone. Moved on to the following set-up JSMusicDB -> RME ADI-2 DAC fs -> Audio-GD Master 9 -> Meze Elite Probalby one of the best albums ever recorded (imo). This band grew up when I did which makes this album more special- arielext

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

Pick a headphone off my rack ...
Sash Très ofc! Though I would love to hear the Monolith M1570 one time. Très is one of the best price/performance headphones out there.- arielext

SASH Deux & Tres; impressive planars from Ukraine
Looks like you have the OG leather pads as well. Sasha changed the pads to flatter ones which increase the impact and detail cause the drivers a bit closer to your ears. Try to push the headphones towards your ears just a bit and see if you like em that way, I personally liked them and started...- arielext

Lehmann Audio Linear
I found a cheap (€50) Black Cube linear USB and just installed it, not using the DAC. Sounds a bit softer (tonal wise) then the ADI-2 DAC fs. RME goes deeper and is sharper, but the softer Lehmann offers a smooth listening and I like the combination with my DT 1990 a lot.- arielext

I have the velour pads next to the stock pads. Velour pads are softer, less V-shaped. So you'll give in on bass and treble energy. Personally I stick with the leather pads.- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
the 700 have slightly different pads compared to the 900, those on the 700 are even softer and isolate better. If you love the 900 sig my advise would be to get the 700. Compared to the 770 pro x the 700 is more neutral and suffers less from the 8khz peak.- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
I'll measure them as well on my minidsp HEARS, just for reference and compare them to the DT 770 pro 80ohm, DT 700 pro X and perhaps some open beyers like the DT 1990. Now I just need to find the time and space :)- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone
I sniped a 2nd handed dt1990 in great condition. Only swapped to the amiron wireless dust protector and using the balanced pads. Excellent value for what you pay nowadays. The build quality is outstanding, same for comfort and overall sound quality. You can turn it into a treble monster in order...- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
DT 700/900 are a pain when I stared but now I don't feel them at all. I hang them on a narrow headphone hanger which eventually created a dent such as is present on the dt 770 pro x as well. Works wonders for me cause now I can enjoy the DT 700 and 900 for what they are: great value for money...- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
It shows that the stellar.45 driver is a step up from the older DT driver. The small upgrades (detacheable cable, less clamp than the pro headset and the indented headpiece) make it a step from the older DT 770. If I have the time in the next weeks I'll check against the DT770/80 and DT700 Pro X...- arielext

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X Anniversary model
Got mine in as well and can only echo @plakat I'm letting it play for a while but the highs are a bit too sharp for me. Planning on testing the amiron wireless/tygr fleece to dampen the highs if they remain as they are. From the 10 minutes I have thus far I prefer the DT 700 pro x so far. too...- arielext

Audio-GD Master 9
From my memory I noticed a step up in quality in bass. M9 sounds fuller/bigger, but again the differences are small. Too small to warrant the original price difference. A 2nd handed M9 would have my preferences over a 1st handed M19, which I eventually did, both are great (organic) amps.- arielext
