Good headphones for under 300$
Ok, anyway, after burn-in I find the bass quite satisfying. I not too overwhelming but not recess either. The mid bass kick is great and I don't find the high really sibilant (at least not with what I'm currently listening to). Thanks for advice about the SRH840. I trully love them and I don't...- Astraks

It's been 24h since the burn in process began and, I can already hear a clear difference. The bass seems a lot clearer and tighter and a tad more prominent. Overall the sound is more open as you said. I was using the JLab Burn In audio loop. I don't know if there's one better than the other but...- Astraks

Just received the Shure 840 and the M&M stack. I'm must say it's a big improvements from what I had before. I really enjoy the sound with a variety of music so far though, at the moment, I find the headphones lacking a bit of bass but not much and the high can be slightly sibilant. On the others...- Astraks

Thanks a lot to both of you for all the answers you've given to me. I trully appreciate. This time around, I'll pull the trigger on the Shures. Though, I do want to put my hands on the DT770 and the A900x one day, just not today. Thanks a lot once again.- Astraks

I was also looking at the Shure SRH840. How do you think those would stand against the DT770 or the A900x?- Astraks

Ok thanks. So I just ordered the Modi/Magni stack from Schiit though I'm still not sure about the headphones. The NAD Vispo HP50 seems really good though it's out of my price range. Here in Canada, I only found them at $300~$350 while I can get the DT770 for $240 or the A900X for 270$.- Astraks

Good headphones for under 300$
I did a bit of research on the Dragonfly V1.2 though I was still more inclined to pull the trigger on the M&M stack since I feel like it's more "futureproof" so when I'll do an upgrade or simply buy another pair of headphones I, in most case, shouldn't have to upgrade the DAC/AMP side of my...- Astraks

Good headphones for under 300$
Ok thanks for your help. I'll probably pull the trigger on this one. Though, I'm wondering, is the Modi a good DAC? I was thinking at first getting the Modi/Magni but if an amp is not required, I should only get the DAC I guess. And, by getting the Modi, if later on I need to get an amp for...- Astraks

Good headphones for under 300$
Yeah I know. At first I wanted to order them and, in case I don't really like them, I can just sell them. Though, I don't know if the reseller on amazon.ca is really legit. I don't want to buy a simple immitation. Also, does the a900x required an amp to drive them?- Astraks

Yes I did checked the buying guide. I just though those two were the closest to my needs. And yeah, I know that the 900x is a better all-arrounder, I'm just not really confident in this whole wings system.- Astraks

Good morning Head-fi'ers, I've been lurking around here for quite a while and finally decided to create an account! I'm fairly new to the audiophile world but I'm really looking foward to it. The thing is, I don't really know wich headphones I should get for my needs. I narrowed down my...- Astraks
