I'm in the process of changing job and am going to spend a lot of time in an office on my own over the next few months and I was looking for suggestions for some new kit.
My source will be a macbook pro (mainly ALAC files) and I can spend ~$500, to include a DAC/amp and some headphones. Generally I listen to classical music, with some jazz as well. Historically I have bought a lot of IEMs but given a move to an office, thought I should move to full-size. When listening to music with more bass, I will always default to my Heir 5.0 IEMs so that shouldn't be a consideration here.
Initially I'm thinking of grado 325, but I really don't know the full size space well (I've got some HD598s at home, which sound great, but look dreadful).
All help appreciated.
