In term of enjoyment: 1. Audeze Sine (closed on-ear) 2. Sennheiser HD800 3. Audio Technica ATH-A900X 4. Audeze LCD-2.2 5. Fostex TH-900 6. AKG K240 SEXTETT MP 7. Sennheiser HD280PRO

I will test recievers on the weekend, so i need choose few. I found some more: Sansui Six ($320) (he also selling sansui 661, but no price listened for it, and it maybe too weak) Sansui qs 50 ($223) (also SANSUI AU D22 for the same price, but it's 83 year) Onkyo TX-666 ($357) What's better to...

I'm sensitive to treble i guess. What's wrong with Kenwood KA-1500? It's 1977 year and 30 wpc, you said it should be 30-70wpc, also decent company, right?

I just get my sextett (it was sended from other city), now i can test recievers Kenwood not in moscow, so i cant test it (didnt see it). Onkyo a little expensive, i want to get decent resiever as cheap as possible (for now at least). I found some more: Marantz PM-54 mk2 ($270) and Kenwood...

This what found: Kenwood KR-6600 ($275) Sansui A-900P ($275) Onkyo A-5 ($370) Akai AM-2350 AT-2250 ($295)

It's perfect. Can't wait to buy sextetts. My friend told me that vintage receivers have no sence today. It's better to buy some new amp because 600 ohm not so big. What do you think about it?

Based on this topic, author doesn't recommend these headphones for metal.

Thx. What about Fostex TH-X00 and Onkyo A800? And i want to ask more about sextett, because i can't listen to it before buy. I've heard that sextett only good with retro music (60-90) is it true? Also i've heard that headphones need to be "speedy" for some type of music (high speed music?) (not...

Thanks a lot. I will do it when i get K240. I really want to buy this headphone and don't even want to consider other options. But if for some reasons i can't buy it from that seller, then i will need another option. Someone recommended me Fidelio X2 (as fallback). What do you think about it?

Thanks for answer. He said it's MP version, as i see from your guid it should be cream color. Is there any guid for it, or recommendations what exactly i need for that headphone? I'm not good at it.

I checked Sextetts in my country, and only one guy selling it. Costs $100, Made in Austria. Photo: https://i.imgur.com/dxfnndI.png. Is it good deal and i also have to buy vintage receiver for it?

I don't have any amp (because i'm not sure if it usefull for my current headphone), but i'd llke to buy it. I have read this thread, it's very helpful. Looks like Denon AH-D600 (overall good?) and AKG K7XX Red (cheap) good options, but i'm not sure.

Hi everyone. I'm looking for headphone to listen metal music, my preferred subgenres: power metal and melodic death metal. I currently use sennheiser hd 280 pro and it sounds bad for my favorite music. My budget up to $400.
