I come from the time ok Klipsch Image S4’s, Monster Turbines, Denon headphones… I think the Philips Fidelios were in there… I don’t remember the others…

But none of those are made anymore. What are the current offerings? Also amps or DAP’s? Do Sony’s still have their Clear Bass? I remember it being amazing on an MP3 player but is pretty Meh in the app for my XM5’s

Modhouse T50RP MkIII Argons can be ordered (although there is a lead time) for under $500.

Dan Clark Audio Aeon 2 Noire (with EQ) scratches my itch.

EMU Teaks have great slam but don't extend as low into the sub-bass as the planars mentioned above.

I'm still trying to decide what's next on my basshead journey. I'm leaning towards the LCD-XC because EQ is not a problem and I've worn motorcycle helmets 3x as heavy so their weight shouldn't be an issue but always interested to hear what people recommend.
