I believe that in the $1,000.00 range new, the Audeze LCD2 open back headphones are a no brainer and available used for much less, Audeze has a great quality build and a strong factory support. If you can stretch that budget the Hifiman HE1000V2s are the best phones I have ever heard and they follow the good company and good factory support as well and have seen some new ones recently for a used price. Enjoy the music
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.
