Thanks mapman....I am happy to see you here....
I am more happy than ever because of my optimized headphone.... All my other headphones had been modified with success but they dont hold a candle to the AKG K340.... The designer was a genius, i even read his patent to figure out my modifications and to pick the right components for them...
My mission speakers were limited by a 7 inches driver for the bass... Problem solved now... And i listen choral music as if the chorus was in all my room...Anyway i could not create a new acoustic room again, my new house is smaller and i am so happy with this marvel K340 i would not create a new acoustic room even if i had a spare room to do one... ... I was sad at first, but after 6 months working around the K340 and i can assure you that this old TOTL for AKG present some speaker-like soundfield almost no headphones can reproduce at any price.... My others headphones are in the closet or for computers and TV use...
I hope you are in good health and spirit.... my deepest salutation to you and respect for your free spirit ....
@mahgister sorry to hear of hard times but glad to hear you made it through.
Yup, life is much simpler with just headphones and not having to deal with acoustically challenged rooms.
What were the other headphones? I have a few around here I use from time to time as well.
Good sound is largely a subjective personal determination. Different strokes for different folks. Everything has its ups and downs. We are all lucky to have many fine options at our disposal. Each is different and somewhat unique. Variety rules. Choose your weapon!
