I have a pair of Cosair headphones that are falling apart.

Here's what I got:

Audio Technics SL-D1 Turntable, I don't use it that much because I prefer CDs to records but I have it in case I want to.

Sony D-EJ021 Walkman, my mother had the same model since the early 2000s and I wanted the same one so I got it off eBay.

Sennheiser HD600, I upgraded to them recently after using HD599 for years, generally I always stick to Sennheiser for headphones.

Tangeant Dac II, my first "true" dac after only using cheap adapter boxes.

I use Audio Technica ATH EQ300M headphones from Japan. I also regularly use CD players and MP3 players. Even turned my DS Lite into one lol.

SENNIES!!!
i really want to try open backs someday... I'm also thinking of getting a record player because I found a lot of records sitting on the curb but had to use my sister's cheap record player to play them back

An update to my audio setup: Bought a pair of Edifier R980T speakers ($99):


They are an upgrade to my previous speakers because these actually have decent bass response (60-70hz), and much better clarity, volume, and soundstage. However they do need EQ to sound good: there's resonance around 120HZ, and a slight treble boost if preferred.

(For a slightly higher price ($150 normal, $112 on sale) and if available, I would instead recommend MR3/4/5 instead as they have more bass response (subwoofer at 52hz), bluetooth connectivity, and better overall sound from what I read. However, my budget is limited to exactly $100, so I went with the 980's.)

I guess you could say I'm kind of a Beyer Dynamic fanboy. I have a pair of 250 ohm DT990s and DT1990 for the Creative external DAC that I have (can't remember the model). There's just something about their signature and being open that really strikes my fancy. On my laptop I use a Soundblaster X USB soundcard, which surprisingly has enough juice to drive the 250 ohm DT990s.
