Thanks for responding! Yes I have researched a lot on Youtube and other forums. I’ve also looked into Amps and DACs. The headphones that I feel are perfect for me, at least according to the reviews I’ve heard, are the Massdrop/Fostex TR-X00 Ebony edition. I also heard great things about the...- Oscar53955
