Nice combo. I had a pair of D770s but treble was too harsh and had to return them.

It's not too bad as the stack have a bass boost button and this helps a lot with it not being too much.

Nah its not a tube amp. It's spare cartridges in cases on top of my Pre-amp.
I used Oratory's eq on the Sundaras but I went back to stock as I prefer it.
Listen to Hip Hop, R & B and recently got into Jazz

Not sure if sarcasm (can't tell on reddit). The camera flips the image in selfie mode

Thanks.
It took me around a week to adapt to Headphone Hifi. I actually prefer it to my speakers. I just feel lost in the music.
I originally had the Sennheiser HD 560s, great headphones, but wanted something with a bit more soundstage so bought the Hifiman Sundaras.
How about yourself?

First of all, apologies for the cringe post, I know its extra, but I just want to express how glad I am finding this subreddit. Thought I'd take the plunge and go down the Headphone rabbit hole and glad I did. Before this I was just listening to my vinyl and was content with it until my girlfriend complained about the loud noise coming from my tower speakers, so I thought I'd invest in some headphones.
They are constantly whilst I work (work from home). And whilst at night too... Been a rough few months but with this set up I can just stick on a song/record and it just takes me away and not a thought in world.

I do love my speakers, but can't really use them when working as it'll disturb my neighbours 🙄... I have the Project X1 that I bought used for £400 off ebay. The Debut Carbon is a brilliant turntable, definitely recommend
