Headphones

Got a pair for MDR-Z7M2 for like 250 at some liquidation place, at first I wanted to flip it for profit but I think I might be keeping it.

previously using Hifiman Sundara, I thought the planar magnetic stuff would give it an advantage but I've never heard any. It's certainly good but obviously now compared to a higher price regular driver headphone, there doesn't seem to be any advantage what so ever. Rather, the Sony design guarantees a much more consistent position when worn, seems to have slightly better low range, and is closed back. I thought I wanted open but now I think the hifiman are just way too open with zero isolation.

Anyway, I feel weird using a Sony headphone because often with these enthusiast hobby activities you wanna be using some niche brand most people haven't heard of.
