How many members have replaced full blown "audiophile approved" systems with a headphone/amp system?
I thought the day would never come when I would contemplate such a move, but wheels are turning and the thought has crossed my mind. The last serious headphones I owned was some Grados back in the 90s. But I never had a serious headphone amplifier, just plugged them straight into a dis player.
So is it possible to get very high quality sound for say, 2K or less? Good enough to walk away from the big rig?
