Best sounding headphones you have owned?
RAAL SR-1b with TI-1b interface, without a doubt.  No other headphone gives as true a representation of a live musical event in a performing space, period.  So what if they don't have massive bass, perhaps their only drawback, although the bass th... 
Headphones vs speakers….
I agree with @yyzsantabarbara above.  I too have a RAAL SR-1b Nearfield Ear Monitor (Earspeakers) system and they are the closest thing to the experience of listening to loudspeakers in a room.  Of course, in my mind the gold standard is a live mu... 
Has anyone tried the new Synergistic Research UEF Performance Enhancer - Ethernet Filter?
So you think I owe anything to all these quarrelers who hijacked and fouled my thread?  I don't think I need to waste any more time on Audiogon threads, many of which go this way.  I will PM @ozzy when I get results.

So far the only one who has tried the SR devices and reported on them, answering my original question is @ozzy.  Apparently he either is the only one who is literate or perhaps he doesn't have a personal selfish motive.  The rest of you quarrelers...

It is said that an argument is an exchange of ideas in order to seek truths.  A quarrel is an exchange of ideas in order to seek control.  Let's stick to arguments and not quarrels.  If you read my original post, all I wanted to know is if someone...

The above posts illustrate why I started this thread.  SR is an extremely polarizing company:  some swear by them and some swear at them.  I have found their digital cables (USB, ethernet) and headphone cables to be the best I have heard.  I have ...

@ozzy Please report your findings here.  Looking forward to your results.  Thank you.  
Qobuz Hi-Rez Not Necessarily the Best Sound
@rogerstaton  Since I use a network streamer I need to use a network player like Roon to play Qobuz on my network.  Originally I used a USB cable from my laptop into my DAC but found that playing music onto my wifi network sounded a whole lot bett... 
Qobuz Hi-Rez Not Necessarily the Best Sound
Thank you for all your thoughtful comments so far.  I look forward to seeing additional great insights. It seems as thought, although I do not have much experience in this area as I listen to little new music other than later relases of jazz, pro... 
So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System
I have two anecdotal experiences with uber-expensive systems. One was at a dealer who had set up some Wilson Alexandria XLFs and didn't have to ask me twice whether I wanted to hear the system.  Having heard some Sophias at a fraction of the cost... 
Steely Dan Catalog on UHQR Vinyl
At one time in my earlier life I owned practically every half-speed and other audiophile record.  As my stereo improved I liked them less and less in favor of the best sounding original pressings.  I have sold most of those compressed audiophile r...
