Thanks @chesebert. Can you explain why you added Focal Clear OG to your list? How would you comapre them with ATH-AWKT? I am thinking about buying ATH, but I read that they suffer from microphony.- pompal

End-game for classical music
Ah, unfortunately I must reject HD 800 because of theirs lack of availability in my country. So at this moment we have 2 candidates from Hifiman. I am waiting for next models which I can test. I would like to collect list of at least 5 headphones and then decide. :)- pompal

It has, but I would like to use balanced output with at least mid gain. With low one music does not taste as with more power.- pompal

End-game for classical music
Usually I am listening to piano concertos, but sometimes I am switching to piano sonatas or especially to Beethoven Symphonies. Not very often I am trying violin concertos. I hate opera, but from time to time I am listening to choral baroque pieces. :) So summing it up... I prefer almost all...- pompal

End-game for classical music
Hi All, I am looking for headphones which excel in classical music. They may be used only for this genre if it is necessary. I have fantastic set for other genres, but nothing for classical one. :( I need to add that I own powerful Topping A90 and 1900$ budget, and I am looking for end-game...- pompal

Neutral DAC/AMP for classical music with decent power
@dunring, this Topping does not have DAC, anyway it's fantastic AMP. @pennywise9492, I contacted HiFiMAN customer service and they told me that my device does not belong to the problematic batch. Therefore I resigned and I am looking for something else.- pompal

Neutral DAC/AMP for classical music with decent power
Hello there, I am looking for DAC/AMP which would be used mainly for listening to classical music. In this case I do not need portable one. The big power is also necessary, something what would be enough for HD800. Outputs: 6.3, 4.4 and 4 pin XLR are also needed - in the future I am going to...- pompal

Powerful DAP for classical music
Guys, I was thinking about DAP solo without additional boxes. Let's focus only on that. If I had no choice I would buy topping a90 - but please do not consider additional options at this moment. Only DAP if it is possible, please.- pompal

Powerful DAP for classical music
@gazzington, Lotoo is excellent choice but it lacks power, only 300 mW. I have Lotoo but I can not find good headphones for it. No matter which open-back ones I use I feel the lack of power during my listening sessions, because of it I am thinking about selling it. :(- pompal
