Out of all the setups you have heard/owned, which one let you forget about the gear and simply enjoy the music? Which headphones bring back memories of the past? Which ones gave you the most eargasms per song?
For me, its gotta be my Macbook Pro 96KHz > Yamaha receiver (pure direct) > Beyerdynamic DT-48E with 120 ohm APS adapter. Everything just sounds so refined and resolving, like all the notes in the song were meant for each other. The imaging is spot on. The detail is nuts. You can hear the start and stop of every single sound and detail perfectly and the notes just dance with each other. The sound does not blur at all or become sibilant. The timbre is very real sounding. Beyer must have known what they were doing all these years because these things sound legendary to my ears. I still have a hard time describing the sound because everything just falls into place, if that makes sense.
For when I want a colored sound, I use my Bose In-Ear and Sansa clip+. I like the bass impact and psychoacoustic trickery. Good for Rap and Pop music. It reminds me of being a dumb kid again which I enjoy.
