I was the first person to bring Stax into the US to the best of my knowledge, I showed them to the person who became the original importer. This was in the late 60s and I have used them ever since. If I were to listen to headphones exclusively or a majority of the time I would have nothing else. But to use as you describe the Sennheiser 600's are fine. I have a pair of them also and could live with them as a full time source. They will very likely sound better than your speakers.
Looking for info on headphones
Hello all
I'm curiously interested in getting a pair of headphones.
The problem is I only know where they are supposed to rest wile in action and that's about it...
My aim is not to replace any speakers... just for a change of pace... now and then.
Neither do I want to make a large investment, just sufficient to realize very good sonics.
Is this all possible for say $200 or so?
Lastly... does the aspect of high or low impedance matter?
I'll probably just plug them into a receiver unless there are some which have other than quarter inch jacks as interfaces.
Thanks very much...
