Hello! Recently I've bought a pair of LetShuoer S12s and absolutely loved them! They're by far the best set of IEMs/headphones I've ever had. For reference the only "headphones" I've ever used were gaming headsets and a KZ ZSX that serves me very well until now.

These, for now, are my absolute favorite IEMs/Headphones of all time, just bought a cx31993 and a pair of Spinfit W1s to use with the S12s since they're on sale on AliExpress and am planning on getting either a HD600 or a DT1990 Pro next.

So I ask you guys, which headphones are your favorites? Which headphones just make you go "Yeah, this is it."

I have had mine for about 3 years and I've loved everything about them except the lack of a removable cable. I ended up modifying mine to have a mini xlr jack last year and it's been great (though soldering was such a pain with my lack of skills and really cheap soldering iron)

When I was first buying a headphone because my old cheap gaming headset broke, I listed the DT990s in my list of possibilities, but due to me being incredibly dumb, the dt990s not having a detachable cable and the fact that at the time I didn't have enough disposable income to get them, I decided to get a pair of HyperX Cloud Alpha IIs, I don't necessarily regret my decision, but I'd rather I had bought an open back headphone instead of a closed gaming headset.
