Hey guys!
I already made some topics here and you guys helped me with my previous headphones!
Currently I own the : Shure se215, beyerdynamic 770 pro , ath-m50x
They all have a decent bass, which I like very much because I enjoy EDM, hiphop , pop etc.
However i'm also getting more into acoustic stuff now so i'd like to try some openear headphones.
Current wishlist:
- sennheiser hd650 / 700 ( for music & movies , gonna test them soon in the shop )
- AKG k702 ( for gaming ).
I want to be futureproof with my new dac/amp combo , since I want to expand my headphone collection even more, while keeping it on a budget. So I want an amp that can run all of these and has potential to power future purchases without having to upgrade to a new amp/dac.
My current amp/dac is the fiio e10k. What I really like is the bassboost, I turn it on/off depending on the song. Is there also a possibility to have another dac/amp with this function?
I've of course did some research myself and found the following options.
1: Schiit modi 2 + magni 2 ( uber ) , price in my country for the both of them = 338 euro.
Perhaps i can get them used, the uber version go for around 70 euro second handed here, so if i'm lucky i can get them way cheaper. I just missed the modi 2 uber for 70 euro by 1 day, the seller sold it.
2: Objective2 + ODAC Combo
Not avaible in my country, but 266 euro with shipping from the usa. Would expect 100 euro customs ( yeah my country is expensive ) , so that would make it around 366 euro.
3: schiit lyr 1 used,
This guy asks 250 euro ( new price 500 euro ) , but it's the older version.
However highest offer currently is 160 euro, pretty sure I can get is for 200-225 , no idea if this is a good deal at all.
4: Your reccomendation!
I am open for all recommendations around this price point.
