So I've got a 280 Pro and I'm quite fond of it, however sometimes I get the impression that it's struggling a little to present my music, so I'm curious whether there's a viable upgrade out there for me. Specifically, a replacement would need to be comfortable, with a closed design (for isolation) and fairly neutral tone. I don't have a price range in mind at this point, and I'd prefer to avoid canalphones (though I may have to have Headroom send me an ER-4 to try out.. just in case).
Alternately, since these headphones are already pretty decent, might I be better off getting an amp for them (I kinda have my eye on Xin's SuperMacro) and leaving the headphone upgrade to another day, or would the 280 not benefit significantly from a dedicated amp since it's already easy to drive?
