Hi Everyone
There are countless discussions on Beyer's, after reading them, and going through what's available in my country, I bought a DT770 Pro 80 Ohm, as it will be drivable by iPod/Macbook's too, and indeed it's barely drivable, yet the listening experience is sub-optimal, the basses aren't strong (the overall performance is weak too), it was pretty much not worth it, as apple headphones were better in performance, and as I already have a Logitech Z-906 system that I enjoy (I think my Z-906's are broken in pretty good, because they were initially shallow, yet now they are pretty hard to beat in terms of music experience, which is mostly along the lines of 80's/electronic etc. with an emphasis on basses). I also needed a headphone to occasionally use with my digital piano, so DT770 wasn't too bad a choice
I'm curious about a better headphone, so just for this reason I'm considering a DT990 Pro with 250 Ohm's
(Oh I also, absolutely hate the cord of the 80Ohm DT770, the cord is unbearable, I really want a braided cord)
I also considered a DT880 Pro with 250Ohm's - yet I think a fully open headphone might be what I'm looking for, which might beat my Z-906's 4+1 experience
I also recently bought a Fiio E12, and I was pretty satisfied with it, IMO, all full sized headphones need an amp or a strong supply, the gain of the Fiio E12 was the missing link to my DT770, however the music was still not as alive as my 4+1 setup, yet it was good
Should I just make due with my DT770 (It's not broken in by the way, I just used it for ~1-2 hours maybe) or should I just go-ahead and try the DT990 too?
I really hate over-buying and wasting products/space/money, yet I think a DT990 might be worth it just for the cord
(I'm also considering buying something like a Tesla T1 from abroad, these are possibilities too)
