Headphones vs speakers

I’m guessing there are plenty of rabbit holes in the headphone game also. I would’ve gone the headphone route years ago just can’t stand to have something on my head for that extended amount of time. Plus a couple of times that I have Auditioned some headphones I didn’t get the visceral experience I got from speakers. Even with my less than perfectly treated room, I enjoy the sound of speakers much more. 

I actually went the other way. Started with very high end ribbon headphones and a high end triode tube headphone amp. While it sounded good it just wasn't the same for me as an actual full blown system. To each his own I guess!

It's the when your system sounds great that makes all the difference. The variations are part of the fun. You just don't get that buzz with headphones imo
