Hey guys. I just need some advice on choosing a pair. I getting a Dacmini CX (Stock, 10 ohms) and I probably have another $1000-1500 to get a pair of headphones. I've been lurking and reading around a lot and I pretty much narrow them down to this two. Between the two I have more experience with the LCD2 (considering its NONE with the TH600) but i'll probably be demoing one soon. I listen mainly to a lot of rock, pop, acoustic, jazz, soundtracks & electronic. Actually most genres I listen to except personally real noisy stuff like heavy metal (IMHO of course). As reference, I personally disliked the W4/W4R's. They just sound wrong to me.
*The HD800's were in consideration, but due to my previous experience with em, i think they really need a system that revolves everything around it and that would probably mean me forking out for an amp which is not really a consideration (weight issue). I've tried the T1's and although they were decent, I just felt they lack synergy with the CX ( which I love). Other headphones (if available, hard to source in my home country which is not the UK/US/Japan).
*I would consider their respective higher priced brothers, but only if they really is such a huge leap.
Please help me with my plans going forward guys. Cheers.
