Finally ordered my first real pair of cans!
I have, at long last, decided to get myself a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990s! They seem like top of the line build and quality, but rather hard to drive.

AKG Q 701 vs AudioTechnica AD900x
Both will be within my budget, but I only have a fiio e06 driver and don't plan on getting another. Are either pair outdated or less reputable? Thanks!- MrSpaceFox

Will my amp power these the Beyerdynamic DT990s?
I have the fiio e06 amp, and am looking to purchase the DT990 pros by Beyerdynamic (250 ohms). With this amp plugged into my iphone or pc, will there be enough drive to use these cans at full potential? Or should I consider some with less power; the Audio technica ad990xs for example? Thanks in...- MrSpaceFox
