These are the headphones I have...

They sound phenomenal. I seriously can not believe what I hear when I put these on my head. Any Ultrasone brand headphone I have tried has been superior quality and comfort.

I have had these a long time though and I think this particular model has been discontinued. Might be able to find it at a pretty low price as a result. When I first got them they were around $300 I think. Probably much less now.

I also have a pair of these...

Also Ultrasone. Also excellent. Much better if you're looking for something on a budget. Got them for like $80.00 a cpuple years ago. This website has them for $69.96 now! Even if you plan on spending a bit more, these would be great to buy as a second pair. Something to bring with you on your travels and whatnot. That's why I bought them. I don't have to worry about them breaking because they were so cheap, but they still sound amazing. The first pair I mentioned never leaves my room.

Just don't get Beats or some stupid shit like that.

Edit: I also run everything through a Kenwood reciever and Apogee One interface.

Anything coming through that Apogee automatically sounds like 10% better. It's unbelievable. There are probably better interfaces put there, but this one is modestly priced at about $250. The main reason I bought it is because it also has a very nice microphone which I have been using to do vocal covers of some Beach Boys tracks. Started with the unreleased backgrounds from 'Don't Talk' about 3 years ago and have been wprking to improve my vocals ever since.

If you want to purchase it, Amazon has it bundled with the Bambu recordings, which is Dennis' unfinished album he was working on. Some really lovely music there as well.

Also, since all my CD's were stolen 4 years ago I jumped on the streaming wagon through Amazon. The CD bundle is $11, the streaming purchase is $17. Even if you only stream, buy the CD. It includes the streaming/downloadable version as well and you save $6. That discrepancy doesn't happen often, but it's a good way to save a few bucks if you keep an eye out.

This is a great overview, split into 3 CDs - happy surfy stuff, Pet Sounds-era and the latter day stuff.

Amazon had some pretty cool Pet Sounds shirts. I opted for this one https://www.amazon.com/Live-Nation-Wilson-Sounds-T-shirt/dp/B073ZP8V1P

I enjoyed reading the 33 1/3 Book on Pet Sounds, was very information into the making of the album

some books, or maybe autographed vinyl covers.

There seem to be a few good book options here:

This one? Endless Harmony: The Beach Boys Story https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004RETT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_vdUOCb4CKDAV4

Get the CD version with bonus tracks--it has a bunch of associates singles, b-sides, and demos. And then there are all of the Sweet Insanity tracks recorded a while after but with some similar sounds--still very Landy-influenced.

Don't be a fool - spend the $12 and buy this.

The Beach Boys: America's Band. A very well-designed visual history of the band from the beginning to 2015.

What's the difference between this box set and this box set?

Is the latter box set the light up one?

Buy the CD and rip to mp3

Boom.

No, they did a run a year or two after the Beatles remasters of 2009. I think the first batch came out in 2012. They did a handful of albums, the early albums had both mono and stereo versions on one disc.

Here’s an example:
