hey there. been in the hobby for a pretty long time now I'd say, but haven't really been happy with any setup I've owned... though I suppose everyone always wants upgrades in this hobby.
I'm Swedish but got exported to Canada for some strange reasons.
anyhow, I ended up here due to me looking for measurements for some headphones that I don't even remember which ones that was, and that due to being on the hunt for some closed headphones that don't have leather/pleather pads as I can't stand using that for longer listening sessions.
I tend to like bass tame headphones to neutral ones, with midrange to upper midrange emphasis I think.
and I've pretty much come to the conclusion that this doesn't exist!
please prove me wrong as I'm getting desperate. tried a lot of phones but none sound right to me so far.
so much easier with open back headphones.
anyhow, I'll be hanging around here for when I've got a place to have open headphones and a bit better budget.
currently only have audio technica ATH-CK100, would love to see measurements of these - I don't even know what sounds good anymore!
also building an M^3 with Sigma11, pairing with an ODAC.
and looking for a semi-portable DAC/amp combo to use with an iPad and laptop, was hoping the Leckerton UHA-6s mkII with Camera Connection Kit adapter would work but I haven't been able to find any information for that.
previously owned pretty much all the newer sennheiser HD5/6-series, AKG K601/K701, hifiman he-4, denon d5000, audio technica ath-esw9/esw10jpn, lots of IEMs... more headphones... too many to remember. just to give a frame of reference or something.
heard a lot more than I've owned though, so there is a bit more to compare to.
a bit strange introduction, not sure what to write. 5AM and pretty tired and stuff.
but the above is pretty much what lead me to this place. I tend to find that measurements do translate to what I have heard in the past, this site seems cool.
so... Hi!
