I have used Focal Chorus 836VW for a long time as front speakers. Now , they are used as rears in my HT system. They are much too good for that specific use , but
I would not have had much if I had sold theme to buy averadge speakers for rears.
Headphones vs full range speakers
I've never had any really high end headphones. I had like a $500 pair of Seinhauser earbuds for a while. I thought they sounded really good even pushing off a phone. Question is who has gone from listening to speakers for your main listening pleasure to headphones or vice versa. Can get something like the top of the line Focal Utopia headphones while pricey they are in line with "mid grade" speakers.
I don't entertain often at all and the wife does not listen anymore. Just started thinking why not simplify and get some kick butt headphones.
I know now that @mahgister is not a young chicken , but his ears must be quite good. I have Focal Clear with Pro-Ject Headbox DS2 and I enjoy theme a lot. When getting old and your ears go down , I think that highend headphone makes a lot on sense.If I am robbed in a couple of years, I will use the insurance money , buying less highend speakers and even more highend headphones and headphone ´ s amplifier |
