Help me choose my next pair of cans =)
I like a clear and warm sound with a decent sound stage. I mostly listen to all genres of rock (very little heavy metal) and some electronic music. I was considering the HD600 and HD650 but I'd have to buy a head phone amp for those two right?- ParanoidAndroid
