    Default My names Neil and I’m a headphone addict

    Hi all, as the title say I’m Neil and the other part is what the wife calls me. I’ve got Meze 99 classics in Walnut and Silver, Phillips SHP9500’s modified to take Shure 940 pads, RHA T20 iem’s and my favourite Hifiman HE400i’s. the RHA’s get run from a Cyrus Soundkey attached to a Pixel 2xl and the rest get run from an SMSL Sanskrit 6th powered by an ifi power supply running into an Arcam Rhead amp.

    I might also have
    AKG K550
    AKG K612 Pro
    Audio Tecnica ATH MSR7
    And a few other bits and pieces 😀

    They don’t get as much love these days though

    I should also have mentioned what kind of music I’m into but the real answer is good music. I grew up with classical and rock but I’m genre agnostic, a good tune is a good tune.

    Hi Neil I've got a few headphones and amps. Enjoyed my time with the 400i's. Am currently working through selling the stuff I don't need. Sold 3 little dot amps and about 5 pairs of headphones so far inc Hifiman HE6's! Will list what I've got later, but currently enjoying my LCD3s

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I've also got more pairs of headphones than I can remember. The problem with them is that I use them in the living room so my wife always knows when I've bought a new pair. With HiFi stuff I can be far more discreet because it's in a separate room and black boxes generally look alike.

    Sounds like you have a good selection of cans there though.

    Welcome to AoS Neil,

    Sadly I'm not a headphone lover, though I still have a couple of pairs of Koss kicking around the place, and I do use a pair of Sonys with my PC. But glad to hear you have embraced and are happy to use them.

    Agree with you about being a "genre agnostic" though.

    Enjoy the Forum and Happy Listening
