Hi everyone,
I'll have to be honest, I've been MIA from these forums and from head-fi, lurking or otherwise for a few years. The last time was active in following my beloved pastime, I had just added my Audeze LCD-2 v2 and the LCD-3 had barely gotten introduced to my stable. It was generally agreed that at the time, save for Stax, Audeze LCD2/3, Sennheiser HD800, Beyer T1, and perhaps Hifiman/Grado top cans represented the creme-de-la-creme of open-back cans in the market.....
...so what have I missed? hahaha. On the one hand, I'm excited to see so many new companies and cans out there now (randomly saw Focal is in the game now) but if you had to do a summary of say 5-10 new high-end, open-back (dynamic or planar) cans for me to look into what would they be? Any consensus (lol) favorites?
I currently run a RS DarkStar which has enough juice to run about anything so that shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks in advance comrades!
