That may be because most headphones are dynamic and you haven't included the option
O I don't care about the operating principle.
Most folks that care about sound quality realize that it is not only dynamic headphones that are the best possible solution.
One can find more people that believe only stats or planars are 'superior'.
Agree. I thought planars were good until I heard Focal Clear.
I didnt vote because of the TOTL designations. I can only think of Sennheiser hd800s as best at TOTL from a brand I like.
Proactive edit: some people do prefer 600 series to 800 and same for 500 over 600, but not as many as I have seen with some other brands. Certainly the Sennheiser construction follows pricing.
I recommend Focal Clear. These, as John Yang describes an attribute he does not prefer, are a 'wow!' Headphone for me, but mostly because of the extra detail, like street noise in studios, and realism, i.e., that I kept thinking the sound was coming from some distant source and taking them off to check at first. I would take Focal Clear over TOTL Utopia. Whatever might be good in Utopia is incorporated into the newer Clear.
...and then there is the not TOTL Ananda I want to try.
For Audeze, pricing is pretty poorly coorelated with sound too, so it really depends on what you want in terms of FR, magnets, housing, etc. Look at what is actually used to construct inexpensive magnesium transparent LCD GX and see you pay for combinations not any specific attribute or component. Unlikely TOTL is the best for you if you get Audeze, and good chance the best will be under $1200.
