Recommendations : Headphone System
 
I am in the market for a good headphone system, not quite sure what to budget for something decent. Roon server will be my source. Looking forward to recommendations :D

What is your budget, and what is decent to you? One can easily spend a few thousand, all the way to $25k and more.

The better headphones will require dedicated headphone amps; especially electrostatic.

will the headphone system requires its own DAC and network bridge? a 'streaming' headphone amplifier so to speak.

Looking at your signature, I'm going to guess you want something awesome, and are willing to pay significant dollars. I recommend you check out offerings from Stax and Abyss. I love my Stax--they are ethereal. Abyss are meatier. Both of these are on every list of world's best.

Very important to test drive before you buy. Head Amp will allow returns with a reasonable restocking fee. The Cable Company has a lending library.
