Hi all,
I have a DT 990 Pro, looking to finally get a second pair of headphones and can't decide between the AKG and the Fischer Audio. (I'm only a budding audiophile so I don't fully understand comparisons using sound terminology quite yet, but I do get the understanding of what they are talking about.) Personally I'm leaning towards the Fischer Audio FA-003Ti because it is closed back and I'd rather my second pair be closed and low impedence so I can use it on the go (so I don't have to use an amp). But if the AKG or an open pair is leaps and bounds better for my tastes then I'd rather get that and buy some IEMS for on the go.
I have a Sound Blaster ZXR sound card, and I will have an amp and DAC soon, probably will be the CEntrance DACmini CX Amp/DAC. If there's anything I'm looking for in particular, it's to be low impedence so it can be driven by most devices, and to sound different from my DT 990 so I have variety. I also would want something that will sound good for multiple purposes like games, movies and music (classics, orchestral, classic rock, 80's, rock, alternative, metal, and many types of EDM are the genres I listen to most). I know this isn't the forum to ask, but if you have any other recommendations you'd like to offer, please do, I'm open.
Thank you!
