I have the E6 and E11 so I guess I'll try it. I use golden ears on my iPhone so that has EQ too. Would that cut out the need for a E6

Ok, well I've had a few days with my headphones now and am very happy with the DT 770 Pro-80s. With the E11 attached it's very nice and the bass is fine. If I put it at EQ 1 or 2 then it's just as good as the COP in my opinion. These are far more comfortable and less hot, likely due to the velour pads. Also, I have been using the Accudio app for the phones sometimes and it's pretty good. Some EQing really allows me to tweak these until what I like.
I'm very happy with my purchase and will likely be back for more when I have funds. I'm already contemplating buying an open pair of headphones for my room and the 770s for the library. I also bought a few pieces to play these on my new TV. I'm looking forward to watching some movies with some sound instead of the TV stock speakers.
The only thing that have made me question my purchase is the DT 770 LEs (32) if they'd be better but, being new I can complain and probably wouldn't notice the difference.
I also purchased a digital to analog converter for my TV to listen to it with headphones. The sound isn't nearly as good as it is from my iphone or PC w/ the E11. I can live with this but I'd like to find a way to improve the sound, or create a surround sound effect when playing PS3 and watching blu-rays on my PS3.
From what I have gathered, a Astro Mixamp would take care of this? Is there anything else I'd need or any other recommendations?
