My little headphone mission crept a bit. I’m now very much enjoying these Shure SRH 1840s playing through a Jan Meier headphone amp fed by the Dragonfly red dac.
Going between my IEMs, Grado and Shure there’s masses of difference, the Shure are really special next to the others. Amps and dacs not such a difference, going between MX3, Dragonfly directly and the Meier really is minimal, now I know what I’m not missing I could happily live with just the MX3 and collect loads of headphones.
It took a while to adjust to headphone imaging but now it feels like having massive speakers that you can play as loud as you like while everyone else is asleep. Which is nice.
