Headphones

u12t because i can use it on the go. I would be missing my susvara though.

Audeze lcd-xc

Koss KSC75X. I like the sound signature, fidelity, and I can use it anywhere.

My Utopias, for sure.

I'm assuming I can also keep something else for mobile use that's not really "part of the hobby". I'd still need something like powerbeats pro for working out, taking video calls on my iPad or watching movies on a plane, when fidelity isn't the goal. I had those long before going down the rabbit hole.

If I can only have one "thing that puts sound directly in my ears" it becomes much more complicated, and IEMs are basically the only option.

Sennheiser gifted a 660S2 in february, haven't bought a headphone since. I sold everything else including my HD600.

My daily outdoor TWS are a pair of Airpods Pro 2.

ER2

The grados. I'd be tempted to say my Samsung beans as they're the ones I use most but 9/10 situations I could just use the grados in their place

Oracle Mk I

I'm keeping three headphones: an HD600, Dt990pro and DT770pro, and one iem (the Moondrop Chu, which I only use during exercise/bike rides). I like having two differently tuned open backs (which is what I use for most of my listening and for work), and a comfortable closed-back for times when it's noisy at home. As for iem's, I'm already satisfied by the Chu (and if it breaks, it's relatively cheap to replace).

I truly enjoy the tangzu wan’ers. But bright but it’s perfect for me.

Focal utopia. Iem: 64 audio valor

Cup & String

If I could keep anything it would be the Ether 2 and the Andromeda but if it was the cheapest headphone that I'd be happy with, it would be the DT880 600ohm and the Truthear hexa or the FAAEAL Iris 2.0

KSC75 for headphones. Tried a lot of IEMS, love some, indifferent towards others, but the KOSS's are the king of value.

Almost at that point. I'm mostly rocking Sony XBA-4 and the OG MDR-CD900 (no ST, no CBS, the OG with coiled cords).

Say what you will about Sony, but when they nailed it right, they nailed it right.

Assuming it’s indestructible, the Hifiman Sundara. I love them. They do everything well enough with a tonality that I love.

IE600

Audio-Technica ATH-AP2000Ti
Noble Kaiser 10 Universal

Assuming I could mix and match mods to my liking, the KSC75 is the clear winner. You just need one pair with the MMCX mod and then you can get all the cables, pads, headbands, earclips and 3D printed parts you desire to make it whatever you want, so you never get tired.

Boom, time to quit the hobby haha

Focal Clear OG/ Senn IE300

My Sennies IE900 & my Focal Radiance

IE600. There are definitely better-sounding IEMs, but the comfort & size is (to me) unmatched.

Meze Elite and ISN EST50 from what I own.

FiR Xenon 6 or EE Odin if I can pick any IEM.

The legend - HD800S

My Grado 325e's more than likely.

I love my Beyerdynamic T90s but they need an amp and so they're less flexible for general use.

Love my u12t's but would probably go with my timeless assuming I couldn't go with them. I do wish the timeless fit better.

Can't go wrong with my Verites and pad rolling to change it up when I want to!

DCA Expanse and Moondrop Variations.

hifiman sundara

IEM = A&K + Empire Ears Odyssey (simply incredible!)

Headphone= Not sure. Probably a HiFiman Pair.

Like u/Wazy7781 said, I'm pretty much out of the hobby, insomuch as I'm not "chasing" better anymore. Speakers is whole different can of worms as I'm looking for new ones for my work set up and my Home Entertainment set up.

LCD-5. It's just ridonculous in it's clarity, effortlessness and naturality. Even all the most basic bitch music sounds fantastic and anything with a hint of effort in the recording, mixing and mastering is just amazing.

I've had the OG Monarchs for the past couple of years and haven't really wanted to replace them, so probably these.

Meze 109 pro primal. Looks mad sleek, is INSANELY comfy, easy to drive, and detailed enough to seriously enjoy for myself. Bass isn’t bad and I love the airiness of the open back. Also portable!!! Sorta.

I'm enjoying my LCD-GXs thoroughly

HD600

Elysian Annihilator

Really happy with my Hype 2's! (Ignoring the rattle that sometimes fixes itself)

Clairvoyance.

Final A5000

Just got the Ananda Stealth on literally Friday so too early to say but it might be that. Struggling some with the comfort but man it sounds good.

I was trying to avoid immediate comparisons but man switching from the 6XX to the Ananda is not flattering to the Sennheisers in terms of bass definition/extension and soundstage.

Just one I own? The Meze 99 Noir are the headphones I grab for the most. Their sound signature is just all around appealing to me and they're the most comfortable headphones I've ever used.

Just one of anything? I have no idea. The most expensive headphones in my collection are the Monolith M1070, and I've never even used anything with an MSRP above those, except for demoing a pair of AirPods Max. I'd probably still choose the Meze 99 Noir. There are better headphones, sure, but I have no idea how any of them sound or fit. Why would I choose them without ever having used them?

Currently with Philphone, as for IEM probably the IE900.
