Hi. I've had short time periods with Sennheiser hd800s, Audeze lcdx and Focal clear mg, but have just come to realization for me, that either I have very bad hearing for a 25 year old, or there really is not that big of difference between those headphones compared to my Sennheiser hd600 phones.

Would love to hear what gear you guys or gals have on you! My power feeder for the phones is rme adi 2 dac.

Well in an attempt to keep this thread positive I'll share:My current favorite headphones are the DCA Stealth, because they're the only headphones I've heard that do midrange as well as the HD600 but with more separation, better and cleaner bass extension and to top it all off they're closed back so you're never bothered by environmental noise.

Only negatives are they're very sensitive to seal and the bass will disappear immediately if you're wearing thick glasses for example. They are also very source picky sounding a bit thin on underpowered portable amplifiers.
