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

The t50rp was a steal before it became popular. I picked up my pair of mkii for $45. All in, ive spent less on them then the cost of a new pair of mkiii. The price to performance is still there, but not what it used to be. At $250ish you got a lot of options that are very good that dont require any modding. It was never an easy recommendation, but the higher price makes it even harder.
