Malcolm (I originally trained as a chemist - it affects the way I think...)
Primary System is (currently):
Analogue 'Pieces':
Opus-3 Continuo with Hadcock (VDH Silver) & Musicmaker, Korato KVP10 Valve Pre (inc Phono) and KTA100 Class A-B (NOT A/B!) Power Amp. Magnum Dynalab Tuner, Uher 'Omega' R2R - All comes out through DALI Helicon 400's
Digital 'Bits': Arcam FMJ RingDAC CDP, DAB Tuner, Apple TV-1 (Jailbroken with HDD upgrade), Humax Freesat Recorder, Beresford Bushmaster
I had a pair of Sennheiser radio frequency wireless headphones and they were very prone to interference depending on where my head was facing. They were also heavy for prolongued periods. I would urge you to try before you buy. I ended up going back to wired headphones for all use - much more reliable.
Recent ones may be better.
Nowhere near as good as wired headphones IME especially on things like timbre and 'ambience'.
