This is my main setup at home, its a bit cramped and filling up with more and more stuff. I don’t think it’s strictly endgame as this hobby is constantly changing and listening to / enjoying your music from new angles and viewpoints but this is rather the current state of my setup. I don’t have one particular headphone and amp that I use daily but instead have different systems that I use depending on what I am listening to and how I feel.
Ha, it’s a little complicated.
I live in Taipei, Taiwan, it’s easy to go to the headphone shops by 20-minute drive so I tend to buy the headphones that are not easy to have a chance to try. And the reviews on the internet convinced me to take a shot.
For the sounds and the uniqueness it’s total worth the price IMO.
Replaced Topping DX7s with D90
“Vintage” THX AAA 789 (from before the rebrand that “DROPped” the “Mass”)
Focal Stellias w/ custom 2.5mm balanced cable by Forza Audioworks
Massdrop 2.5mm to XLR adapter
EDIT: used a smaller version of image so it shows up OK
On a spicy debate between “objectivists” and “subjectivists” (I claim membership to neither group, btw) on another forum I mixed up the two words. Sleep also the culprit.
