Like on our side or on the producer's side? I think producers would want to sell their TOTL headphones even with a quantity discount due to high profit margins. On our side however.. depending on the numbers needed, getting like even 25 to commit could be pretty hard for a $1000 headphone. Also the only headphones on this list should be anything Audeze, HD 800, Fostex and HE-500 (maybe). [and beyer T1]

With that attitude you might as well say that there's no reason for any headphone but the STAX SR-009 to be on here. After all, they're a good 4.5 grand, and require a similarly priced amp. Make the Audeze look like pocket change price wise. For most people (almost, I don't know what the Sony and Voda are doing here) /anything/ on this poll is easily an end of game headphone.

The only headphones that arent on both my and your list are the HE-400 and Audio Technica... relax. The OP is looking for "the very best in luxury Audiophile headphones." Im sorry, I may have misinterpreted that as TOTL. Yea the HD 6X0 line and I dunno, Mad Dog and HE-400 can compete but given that the OP mentioned the LCD-3 being the very best headphone available, I assumed he was looking for headphones within that class. Also the reason I said only those headphones is because they are TOTL and have the best chance of winning (aka are popular). Add the Stax on here; it probably wont change anything. Sorry, dont know much about the Audio Technica. ====================================== Lol I think people got sick of trying to properly drive the HE-6.
