Ok I'm looking to get a pair of closed headphones and some that has caught my eye are the beyerdynamic dt770s 250 ohm. I currently have a pair of Sennheiser HD595's. If I were to get the dt770s I would also get a schiit magni (and then the modi when I can scrape together the cash). My only...

im in nearly the exact situation youre in. looking for a $50-$150 dac for my HD595. I'll keep posted

i dont know exactly how much the are in over seas but i would assume they're around 100 euros

yeah i was looking at the e7 because it has a dac which i don't have. The e10 would also work. Is it better than the e7 for non-portable use?

will be coming from my macbook air and almost every type of music
