Hi,

Re auditioning, find out when the next Head-Fi meeting or Can-Jam is somewhere near you.

Personally I would say best Headphones for classical are electrostatics, there is of course Stax and even their antique Headsets at 2nd hand prices are quite good (Recently heard SR-X/SRM-12 again nothing wrong with them).

Then there are others, mostly discontinued, like the Sennheiser's, plus there is Koss, which I owned in the 1980. Some other 'stat's are starting to become available, I have one of these at home.

At 20 bits, you are on the verge of dynamic range covering fly-farts-at-20-feet to intolerable pain. Really, what more could we need?
