How about making some wired, dynamic driver, open back headphones?
Like HD800S but with the most accurate frequency response possible. The new neutral reference.

With the best detail and clarity possible for $3k or less.
Many people like myself have owned or tried several of the top planar headphones and aren't happy with them for long. And they're overdone.
A dynamic driver HD800s competitor with better accuracy and not $6k would be a game changer.

I auditioned the HD800S on my Bryston system ... not my cuppa.  I bought LSA Diamonds (if Bryston made HPs, I probably would have them):
sound fantastic and anyone who tries them when here are always impressed with the clarity and detail.  Of course, it helps to have
Bryston gear to drive them ... shown in the Bryston Systems post :

Hi James,

My Bryston  collection really grew this year:
BDP-2, BDA-3, BHA-1 driving LSA HP-Diamond headphones. 
Total audio bliss ! 

cheers,
Dean

But the LSA diamonds are more planar headphones. I like my 2019+ model HD600's better than the LCD-3F's I owned, and more than the LCDX and LCD4's that I heard. The HD600's are the most tonally correct, engaging, and proper sounding headphones I've heard.
Not top class for absolute clarity or detail though, that's where the Bryston headphones will come in...

Hi Dean - nice setup?

Hi James,

reposted from #332 on your Bryston Systems topic thread to show the LSA's. 
Is it a nice system ?  I think so.  You might recognize the 11B sandwiched between
a blue-ray player and a Magnum Dynalab FT-101 to the lower left ...below that is
a 4B and on either side A3's ...  I'll have to send another pic

cheers,
Dean

HI Dean - typo - I meant Nice System !!!

Come on fellas, be realistic. Bryston isn’t going to make a headphone. There’s too much chatter in the market today so it doesn’t make any sense for them, or any other boutique manufacturer, to get into the business of making and selling headphones. It’s a market where the values that Bryston promotes, like 20-year guarantee, mean nothing.
