Stax 009 (two)
Stax L700
Stax 007 Mk I (71xxx serial)
Audio Technica ATH-L3000
Sennheiser HD650-ish (2012 HD650 replacement drivers in rare HD580 Jubilee body) w/ 2004 Equinox XLR cable
Sennheiser HD650 (2003 model; darker smoother sound) w/ Zu Mobius XLR cable
Past:
Sony MDR-R10 (nice for classical, but totally not worth insane prices. awful headphone for rock)
Sony Qualia 010 (awesome headphone with a kinda awful midrange and fit issues...still somehow sounds awesome when the stars aligned. HD800 is a cheap knockoff of this.)
Grado HP-2 (three times! nice headphone, except for the complete lack of soundstage and horrific comfort)
Audio-Technica L3000 Leatherhead (3 times!)
Audio-Technica ATH-W2002 (w/ matching amp; pretty!! nice sounding but not stellar overall)
Audio-Technica ATH-W5000 (truly awful)
Audio-Technica ATH-W10VTG? (I may have got the model # a bit wrong, but it was the first wood headphone they did)
JVC HP-DX1000 (fun listen; lots of bass)
Ultrasone Edition 9 (sounds decent overall, but a very mediocre $1500 headphone)
AKG K-1000 (meh)
AKG K340 (meh)
Sennheiser HD600 (awesome, but I liked HD650 better)
Sennheiser HD580 (deal of the century in headphones)
Grado RS-1 (twice: really vintage w/ wood box and less vintage w/ pizza box. not worth the price when you can get HD600/650)
Grado HF-1 (Serial #15! Should have kept; probably enjoyed this more than any other non-HP1000 Grado)
Grado RS-2 (meh++, maybe a better choice than RS-1 if you want a Grado for some reason)
Grado SR-225 (ugh - way too bright with bowl pads; way too muddy with flats; OK with old vwap pads but never gonna get to where you want it)
