How do vintage legendary headphones stack up against today modern totl headphones? in c/headphones@hi-fi.community

Older headphones were built for different equipment and mastering/production techniques and limitations. One could perhaps make the argument that vintage headphones sound "better" (people's opinions about is considered "good" also change) on that equipment for particular records, but in general, newer headphones sound better.
