Hello. So I've made a post asking which headphones I should buy and I've come to a decision on either Philips SHP9500 with a ~$100 AUD Amp or Sennheiser HD 598 SR with NO AMP. My current setup are 2013 Astro A40s with Mixamp. Source for these are onboard Asrock b250 gaming k4 (uses ALC 1220).
Basically I'm looking to know what my current setup does and what improvements I should be noticing or even looking for when moving to the new listed headphones. Reminder that the Astro A40s use mixamp, the Philips will also use an amp but the Sennheiser 598s won't have an amp with them due to budget.
Anyone who has used the Astro A40s and are able to comment on what their weaknesses are compared to the headphones listed would be much appreciated! Thanks.
