Lots of good options and opinions, thanks so much. I'm narrowing between the Focal Utopia and the HIFIMAN Susvara. Looks like I'll save $1,000 on the Focals, but based on the above comments and the research I've done they excel in staging and midrange with the Susvara being very demanding to drive. I would have thought the Utopias would be the higher price tag, but maybe that's a good thing!
Top 3 Headphones
I want a set of audiophile [subjective, I know] headphones. I saw this article below. How can $295 Grados be at #1. When 3000X are $2,000?
My budget is > $1,000. Regardless of my preamp/headphone amp, what is the top 3 (if there’s even a consensus)?
I enjoy Classic Rock, Alternative, Country and soft jazz.
