Hell no, people who swear by Sony better have the CD900ST, CD1700, CD3000 or R10 and give me a chance to audition it/them.

The company that made the eventually atrocious MDR-V6 has to wow me.

Edit: seriously, Sony has to fucking outdo itself to get my money.

Hey, don't forget the SA5000.... that's one sony headphone I really,  really liked.

I still have mine too and like it for certain applications.  It's going to get mixed reactions for sure depending on the user.  You used yours on vintage receivers if I recall.

Yup. Mostly from speaker outputs since I never experienced too bad of noise issues with some amps. The yamaha R9 with the -20db muting switch was one I really liked cause the muting switch mafe the background dead quiet.  The yamaha m45 powet amp was good choice too cause the left and right input volume knobs made it dead quiet using sensitive headphones. Headphone jack wise I liked the sansui 5000x, kenwood c2 preamp and Harman kardon hk725 pre. Sounded best off the hk770 power amp but noise level was too high for my avg low listening levels with them so I mostly used the m45 lot with them due to ability of tuning down the noise level with the input knobs.

The truther comments are reclusive English geek babble. In his own words, he believes any conspiracy theory he comes across because it makes life more interesting. This is a guy who has also said on various occasions that he: drives a tank, lives in a bank vault, has a dead brother with the same name. He's always talked shit, trolled, and just been a general oddball. Maybe he's truly nuts? Who knows.

I'm still quite interested in what Richard D. James has to say about audio equipment though, as he's one of the most important figures in electronic music and a tech wiz when it comes to studio assembly, having built many different studios to create his own music. He's something of a synth connoisseur and an incredible producer too.

These are not bad, not bad at all. Forward robust mids with decent bass. Slightly lacking air and detail in the highs but I will take this over the m50 anyday. It sounds more balanced out of the ipad vs the schiit vali though. It actually works really well for me for straight ipad use.
