Headphone or Rig?


I was listening to my headphones, which is something I rarely do, and noticed the detail, that I'm not sure of enjoying from my listening chair.

Which is better for reference; your listening chair, or headphones? I'm assuming equal quality; very good headphones, very good rig.

Many people do not like the "in your head" sound staging of a headphone.

A SOTA headphone system (like a top Stax) with the right headphone amp, does have more detail, and better fidelity, than a top flight speaker system IMO.

And no room interactions.
