Hi,

Currently I own a Grado SR125. Couldn't get used to the brightness of the headphone. I've about $400 to spare for a new headphone, what do you guys recommend for a headphone that's different from the Grado SR125.

The headamps I'll be using it for are the Meta42 and the Apheared47, both still under construction. I listen mainly to old rock musics from the 70's and 80's and also alittle bit of blues.

Thanks

Hi newbie here..

Enter the headphone scene something like 1 month ago when I got my 1st Grado125.

I'm also in the midst of bulding my Meta42. At the moment sourcing for components.Here's the part so far I have,

meta42 v2.1 board

Normal metal film resistors

AD8620 dual-channel opamp (connected via DIP-8 op-amp adapter)

2xstacked EL2001CNs per channel (ie 4 total)

EL2001CN power supply buffer

Biased into CLass A w/ Cascoded Jfets

Yet to buy Alps Blue potentiometer.

No enclosure in mind yet....
