Vote: Which Headphones Should I Get Rid Of?

[watchnerd]

I do variations on Stronglifts 5x5, I've got my own power cage. I must say though that I've been using it sparsely for the past 2yrs and not at all for the past 3 months, but I'm still the same weight & not fat.....just gotta start it again.

That barbell isn't going to lift itself.

Today is snatch practice for me, as I have a meet in May.

Neck and neck between the HE-400i and AKG K7XX...

Whichever I get rid of, I need to find a charitable cause to donate the losing cans to.

I think you should send the K7XX to @amirm to measure, then maybe he could donate them for you.

He still hasn't measured the Pi DAC I sent him.

Besides, he's just going to send the K7XX back to me, and then I'm back to where I started.

All of them...

Well then I wouldn't have any to use and my wife will get mad when I want to play music late at night.

Don't get me wrong, I know nothing about your headphones. I just don't like to use headphones.

The reviews of headphones here on ASR seem a waste of time, but to each his own.

Our house is designed such that it is very difficult (or impossible) to hear music or movie audio from the bedrooms.

I don't like them either, nor are they my main modality.

But they're cheaper than buying a new house with a different layout.

I think you've motivated me to get back into the power cage today!

Just send them, it's your civil duty! In fact drive them over to him and then using your trained strength give him a hand moving the heavy speakers up to a holding room near the testing room, and then maybe build him a log cabin in the garden to house the excess speakers if you've got any energy left over! I'm sure in return he'd at least measure you Pi DAC and give it back to you whilst you're there.....fair deal!

Why must all of them be displayed on the shelf ? Just pack up the least used one in its box ?

I didn't vote as I have no knowledge of the listed cans except for the Sennheisers.
All I could add is that the vote tally reflects my opinion, never sell the Senn HD6xx
Not the worlds best phones for sure, but my factory HD 650's have been the ones I found "plenty good enough".
Enough so that I wouldn't consider spending any more for something else.
Also I'd hate to count the number of people I read on HeadFi's main 650 thread of folks that have sold their 650s for something else 3,4, and 5 times, only to turn around and buy another set. LOL
YMMV

Just don't vote. Love it, Sal.

You got that right!

Why keep something I don't use when I can give it to someone else who may get more use out of it?

Realistically, will you ever listen to more than one pair? Maybe 2 (open and closed) so ditch the 400 and 7xx. Job done, let's go to the pub.

The K371 are worth keeping even if I'm not overly fond of their sound for travel purposes because they're collapsible.

Awesome!

It's true it's true, I got in there this morning for the first time since November I think!
