Hi,
I am looking for some decent cans to be used on a Kann Cube DAP. I wanted to get some recommendations for those who have used this DAP before and what can it drive well. I won't be using any additional external amps.
To me the DAP seems to be a bit bright with my existing cheapo cans (some old Bose, don't know the model). It probably is the cans I imagine.
Some info:
I mainly listen to rock, everything from the "spacey" type (ex: Pink Floyd) through metal and everything in between.
My budget is around $1000 or less.
I don't need or want noise canceling or other gimmicks.
I want wired only.
I listen in quiet environment so open back OK.
I want good deep bass although not over emphasized or boomy. I don't want cans with anemic bass either. It must produce those rock bass riffs well (especially for the heavy metal tunes).
I don't want cans that are overly bright. Electric guitar riffs can be a bit too harsh in that case. Obviously I don't want a muffled sound either.
I realize I can EQ the sound a little to fine tune but want to start with a good match played flat.
Thanks much.
