I got these at thrift store and love them! They are Panasonic SL-SX400 CDP and Sennheiser MX400 earphones, both in great condition. I bet most of you audio enthusiasts have tried cdp back in the days, but if you haven't, they sound very good. Most of them including mine has powerful headphone amps, and I could even rock my hd560s with 50% volume. Of course they are not hi-fi level of sound but it is very enjoyable. If you never experienced them, I highly recommend to try it out.

Another massive head gang member! If you don't feel comfortable at first try, sorry but it's not for you. The only solution is to get another headphones. As a giant head myself, Sennheiser were nice, their headphones got enough room for everyone.

I always listen to Charlie Puth - Light Switch. This song is great for testing tone (literally by listening first 10 sec, you can tell how it is tuned), bass, and dynamic.

IEMs, especially Chinese IEMs. In my opinion, analog audio technology has reached its 'good enough' level long time ago, so now it is all about making it efficient.

IEMs has been flourishing recently, with two perspective. One is high-end and the other is 'cheap but good'. Chinese IEMs are in both group, and doing very well. Other major audio manufacturers are also doing it but not as fast as them.

Headphones seems like reached its 'okay... what now?' status. However, wireless headphones are different story. It used to be sound okay and reasonably priced but now they are trying to be high-end.
