I got a set of AKG K141 monitor headphones - they are quite nice but I still prefer my Sennheiser HD25-13's...

The journey never ends. The one day you might think you have a good system and the next you get a better (or more satisfying) piece of equipment.

I got through turntables like nothing... I am like it!
