Slightly off topic, but I think that the Playstation sounds better with headphones than any type other player I've tried so far (including several SACD players). I think a lot of it has to do with it's beautiful midrange performance and it's non-fatiguing ways during longer listening sessions. I specifically asked my modder to NOT remove the muting resistors that Sony placed in the signal path of the player - while upgrading certain other parts. This preserves the non-fatiguing tonal balance (slightly mellow top end) that original Sony Playstations are famous for.
