My Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro headphones broke after around 6 years of use. I'm looking to try out IEMs now, what models would have the same kind of sound as my headphones? My prefered budget is around $120-180.

I'm looking for a dac/amp combo for my Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 Ohm headphones and for my speakers (Edifier R1600T). I'll be listening from my computer.   I need something portable in a sense that i put it in my suitcase and not worry about anything breaking (no tubes). Preferably with...

I've read about it, but they won't do a Massdrop Modi/Vali will cost me €210 including shipping

I saved up €200 for dac/amp combo. Will be using it with my DT990 250ohm and my speakers (Edifier R1600T). So speaker support is appreciated. Also, i need portability in a sense that i put my dac/amp in my suitcase and not worry about anything (tubes?) breaking.   Currently looking at...

The O2 amp alone looks neat on its own, but just outside my price range. It's not usb, right? Need to use it iwth my sound card.

Different from Little Dot I+?

The problem is, it's USB. It will bypass my sound card and anything gaming related

Then i have no idea what i'm looking for in an amp. It's 50/50 gaming/music for me. One thing i know for sure is, whatever the DT990 Pro does, i like.

Looks like i'm the third one joining in here looking for an amp, i'm using 250 Ohm ones with Asus Xonar DG soundcard, barely drives them to my preferred sound level.   Been looking at Bravo V2 and V3, compared the numbers, they are the same. I guess you just pay for the EQ options with the...

Anyone experienced with DT990s 250 Ohm + Bravo amp like Bravo V2/V3?

I'm new here too, thought i'd tell you what i've experienced. My first buy was a HD598 (very similar to the HD558), they were a huge improvement, though i didn't like their balanced/neutral sound. Went to a store and tried out Beyers, liked the tight bass a lot. I have the 990s 250 Ohm right now...

Thoughts on Fiio E11k vs Bravo V2 to power the DT990s 250Ohm?

  DT770s 80 Ohm and DT990s 250 Ohm Pro cost both €130 here, you think the €50 i have to spend on an amp to go with the DT990s is worth it?

DT770: Positional accuracy is fantastic, though the bloated bass makes it hard to pick up details. Could you elaborate, please? What do you mean by details? Steps? Weapon switches?   I have the HD598 right now, though i love the soundstage on it, i can't stand the bass and the balanced sound...

I'm looking for speakers for my computer for general use. My Logitech speakers are broken.   Ideally i want to spend €100, i can go upto €150 if it's a really good deal.   Currently looking at: 1) Numark NPM5   2) Edifier Rt600T 3) Creative Gigaworks T40   Because i have limited space...

I currently have the HD598 plugged into my Xonar DG. Would the Modi make any significant difference?

Quote: Currently it's FLAC>Foobar2000>Asus Xonar DG>Sennehiser HD598

Quote: I have the same question. I've got my HD598s for 2 days now and i wonder if a DAC or amp under 80 euro would make any significant difference.

Quote: Save money for a better headphone/amp/whatever. The cable should be your last upgrade.

Quote: Those are on-ear, right? I have an on-ear model once, they weren't comfortable at all. Are the hd25's comfortable? Also, out of the 3 headphones in my original post, which one would you choose and why?

Help me please. Do the HD598s handle rock/heavy metal well? I've heard they're too neutral for metal.

I am looking for headphones for rock/metal with a budget of 180 euro. Some bands are Metallica, Iron Maiden and Megadeth. I am new in the audiophile world so it's hard to describe/decide what i want. On one hand, i think i'd like something aggressive (especially for Metallica, just listen to...

Looking for headphones for hard rock/metal. A few example of bands i listen to: Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Judas Priest... I have a budget of 150 euro max, buying from amazon.de or ebay, unless someone knows any better European store. I want good sound stage. Pretty much everything is...
