If you're after restriction and the release of surrendering to another's will just get the Mrs a book on Kinbaku , maybe she can start out practising on a domestic pet , her cats naturally...
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.
If you were in Australia I'd say sell them and donate the proceeds to LifeLine (crisis support service) but I'd guess there's an equivalent in your country!
Fair enough, where are you based?I'm hoping to avoid the hassle of selling by giving them away.
Especially in a social distancing pandemic. I don't want people coming and asking for listening tests.

Could have the 'buyer' pay postage and donate an amount to a charity of your choice (providing you proof prior to you shipping them), I just don't know how you're going to choose the beneficiary.
Location in avatar..
I'll probably just list them in Nextdoor, give them to some kid in the neighborhood.
Well, I nearly said get rid of the HE400i, as I find my HE4XX sounds a bit dull, but it does have a good soundstage, and your other headphones may be lacking in soundstage apart from the 7XX, but then again if that doesn't have angled pads (not sure) then that might not be your soundstage headphone which might sway you to keep the HE400i. K371 or HE400i.But I just got them 2-3 weeks ago....
So soon?
Another Shelf!
Yeah, you need to get a vintage L30 and get a good spark on.Uh oh.....
But Amir already measured two of them [two I've got and will keep, FWIW].I have another idea... (Don't take that too seriously)
The problem is that you have not enough space to keep them, right? so... send them all to Amir for testing, one at a time. You see, it's a win-win situation, you make space on your house, then Amir could provide us more reviews and he could look for unit to unit variance for headphones he has already measured.
Well, yeah, but I'd be very interested if at some point he'll get the opportunity to measure other units of the same headphone model...But Amir already measured two of them [two I've got and will keep, FWIW].
I am so not worried about the measurements of those two headphones. The Drop 6XXs sound great with eq, the Akg K371 without. Don't look a gift horse too deep in the mouth. And don't expect too much from Amir, he's dancing as fast as he can..Well, yeah, but I'd be very interested if at some point he'll get the opportunity to measure other units of the same headphone model...
I don't think it would be necessary another full review, but maybe another set of measurements with the same headphone could provide us hints on variation between units, on quality-control level and such...
It could be useful also to make clear why you can't EQ all the way up to a target one set of headphones and then pretend that all of them will exhibit the same response...
