Due to a recent--and rather funny--mishap with my old car, I'm getting approx. $920 from an insurance claim. Nearly what I paid for the thing! I'm pretty secure financially, and being the guy I am, I've decided to blow all of this free money on some combination of headphones/amps. My set up right now is just a vanilla iPod with a pair of Grado 325is. No amp, but they're my first real pair of audiophile headphones, and I'm thoroughly satisfied. But, due to the nature of my new found hobby, I have to spend more. So I want to spend $900 or so on a new setup, but I'm not sure what I should get (I'm pretty new to this). I've been looking at a few options: Darth Beyers, Sennheiser 650s, UE 10 Pros, Shure SE530s, AKG 701s... I'm lost. And I wouldn't even know where to start with amp selection. Portability is great, but not everything. I lug the 325i around with me, as inconvenient as that is. I listen to just about every genre of music, so I need something well-balanced. But anyways, any kind of suggestion or help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
