Welcome to Headphone Heights, the place for all your ear bud discussion

One thing others haven't mentioned...

is the fact that with headphones, you can swap out to a different "flavor" much easier than speakers. When I had my arsenal of cans, the ones I'd pick to use sometimes differed by the genre of music I was listening to.

Certain cans synergized better with a particular type of music than others. For instance, if I was listening to anything featuring strings of any sort, I'd opt to listen to them through one of my Grados. Something about Grados and strings sounded so musical to my ears.

And also, with cans, the "bang-for-the-buck" factor definitely kicks in - real hard. For a hundred bucks you can pick up a pair of Audio Techinca AD700's and be in audio heaven straight out of something as simple as a portable player.
