Grado 60 and Senn 600.

I actually prefer the immediacy of the Grados (maybe because they are lower impedance), so I may have to explore further up the Grado food chain.

Sennheiser HD540 Gold references. The newer 560 ovations are a tad better, but not by much. I can't afford an Orpheus ;-) (or justify it for that matter lol).

I have Grado SR-80s.
My car took one of the pads with it when it got totaled this month, the passenger door got crushed in and I could get to it. I was going to get SR-225s, but I think I'm going to get a 'scope first. Maybe I'll just order new pads.

Oooooh headphones!!

I'm using:
Sen 600s (luscious, but a little thick in the bottom end for my tastes)
AKG 501s (lean sound, but I love 'em)

Driven by a WooAudio tube headphone amp or my home-built headphone amp.
