Who's listening with headphones tonight? To what?

All evenings YT videos are only headphone listened to, can`t stand this HP slimline laptop`s very crappy speakers, so I use my over 35 yr. old Sennheiser HD 540 closed ear piece headphones.
Other then this application, all other stereo sourced reproduced sounds are via the system`s speakers.
 
The Beatles
Please, Please Me (debut album)
Remixed in stereo by fan using MVSEP
Koss Pro-4AA

When most of the world had gone to 4-track studio recording, England's Parlophone records were still recording in 2-track. This means the first several of the Beatles' albums were in dual-mono, with all the instruments in one channel and all the vocals and lead guitar solos in the other track, which certainly sounds unnatural.
New and ever-improving software can now separate each instrument into separate tracks and even split vocals into lead and background. This allows a proper stereo mix, and the fans are far better at using the technology than the studios are!
Sax and Guitar

My harman/kardon soundsticks do a pretty good job on my computer.

David Gilmour Essentials on Apple Music streaming through Mac Mini to Teac DAC/AMP via Optical by way of SMSL Adapter. And finally, Fosi i5 Planars.
Gilmour is one of the best! Always a journey to the quintessential experiences.

I see what you're up to there. Better be careful, it's a slippery slope. :biggrin:

Shoutout to @wualta indeed.
Awesome. Please tell me about your mods.

Im not sure Yamaha wouldve revived the technology without vintage fans like wualta.

My HP-2 is early production because square holes:

edit: perhaps there is a thread more appropriate for talking about this stuff?
