Hello everyone,   It's been about 4 years since I bought the HD555s, and they're kind-of falling apart so I'm looking to switch to something else. I'm currently leaning towards the AKG K240 Studio headphones, as they're supposed to have some similar qualities; being open and natural sounding...

Has anyone heard both and can tell how they compare? I read excellent reviews about both of them, and it seems that the DF can also drive some pretty difficult-to-drive headphones.

How's does the O2+ODAC pair with the GR07?

How's does the O2+ODAC pair with the GR07? Or should I maybe look more into the Dragonfly?

Recently purchased the GR07 IEMs, and have been using them with my iPhone, and my computer, which only has on-board sound. In comparison, the sound through the iPhone is much fuller, it has more bass and soundstage than the on-board chip, which sounds very thin. I've been doing some research...

I've read that the E10 cuts the first 0.7 seconds of audio. Is there any truth to it? Also, what other DACs would you recommend?

Nice, it seems like a pretty good sound card. However, I'm thinking of maybe spending a little more.   Do you think the Xonar STX suit my needs well, or would it be a waste?

Thank you all for your contributions! In case i'm going for the DAC, how does the previously mentioned Matrix Quattro DAC compare to Burson HA-160D (as i've heard it goes very well with the LCD-2s), and is there any noticeable difference between the two hooked up to these headphones?

Any thoughts on how the Asus Xonar Essence ST sound card would perform with these headphones?

Quote: Will the on-board amp on the Quattro DAC alone be sufficient to drive the LCD-2?

After doing some research to which headphones I should upgrade my Sennheiser HD555s, considering the HD600s, HD650s and some other phones, I decided that the LCD-2 would be a better option - a more considerable upgrade.   And now, I have a couple of questions to ask:   I have an Optical...
