Physically Comfortable Headphones
While I no longer have them, I've tried a lot of different headphones, and the Meze Empyreans are for me the most comfortable....   
Ohm owners: What headphones do you use?
I'd suggest you also ask this question in the Headphones threads; many people with 2-channel systems don't use headphones at all, and they are not a very popular topic on these forums. I could give you suggestions for good headphones, but I've nev... 
Is "detailed" audiophile code for too much treble?
One person's 'too much' can be another person's 'not enough'.....  
Best sounding headphones you have owned?
Just recently got the Modhouse Tungsten DS with the Enleum XPA-23RMH amp, and that is a superb pairing. They sound much better through that amp than my Susvaras do, and like the Susvaras, they sound excellent on my DNA Stratus tube headphone amp. ...

@jeffreylee - I don't know what you are reading; DeGritter is made in Estonia and it says this on their website: We’re currently a team of 14, based in Tartu, Estonia, European Union. We operate on about 450 square meters, where we’ve put togethe...

@jeffreylee - Here is your logical sense - DeGritter is not a US machine. I don't care about 'cosmetics' or 'prestige'. I care about something that is well-made and trustworthy.

Any audiophile use computer (MacBook) as your audio streaming source?
I used to use a MacBook as my streaming source; changed to an Eversolo A6 about a year ago, which was far superior; I'll upgrade that eventually, too.

@devinplombier - personally, I use distilled water and nothing else in my DeGritter. I would avoid the kind of thing you see on Amazon for $160; these are made for cleaning jewelry and other assorted items, and I wouldn't expect them to last very ... 
Ultrasonic Record Cleaner 40 v 80 v 120 kHz
I've had a DeGritter for 3 or 4 years, have cleaned hundreds of albums through it, and no vinyl has been 'damaged' - rather, it's been 'cleaned'. I don't even use record cleaning solution, just distilled water.

I don't have experience with the others, but I've had an original DeGritter for 3 or 4 years now, have cleaned hundreds of albums in it, and it works as well as the day I bought it, which is 'perfect'. Expensive purchase but one I did not regret, ... 
When I listen to my system.......
I've always wondered about people saying a sound system 'got their foot tapping' or something like that. To me, it was music and a beat that got my foot tapping, whatever it was played on. In the 60's, it was often a hand-held transistor radio. Fo... 
Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me
@bassdude - indeed, and a nice thing is that in a different arrangement, I could mount them on stands and I've got a nice pair of active bookshelf speakers. In fact, I think more people use them for that than for near-field computer speakers, but ... 
Recommend a desktop nearfield speaker for me
I use a pair of Cabasse Rialto speakers as my desktop/computer sound source; they ain't cheap by any means and they're quite heavy, but they sure sound great....
