AD900 closed headphone equivalent?
I find the DT770 250ohm quite pleasant in compliment to the AD900. From ATH's line there's only two I can think of: A900ti and A950LTD (saw one in a Singapore store, Jaben). They dont sound similar to AD900, but IIRC they're quite nice in complement to AD900. Have you tried the...- sad_katz

Like my AD700's but WITH BASS?????
Good aural imaging for gaming with plenty of good bass ... I can't think of anything else besides the DT880, given you can amp them properly. Maybe the A40 amp can drive them. I own the AD900. They have good bass and more quantity than AD700 but might not suit your liking. Ever...- sad_katz

Help concerning AD900
I use the AD900 for both gaming and music and find the AD900 has lots of sound stage for gaming. I can't remember the soundstage of AD700 vs AD900, but the AD900 has accurate audio positioning. Very good for cod4 and CS. The AD900 also sounds real good for music. I recommend it, although the...- sad_katz

The ATH-AD900 Thread
FWIR, it is recommended to upgrade the source first, then the amp. Do you guys think its better to get the ibasso D10 first (decent DAC under $300) then the hifiman EF2? Or is it better to get the EF2 first, then get a better DAC (LD DAC_1 or DacMagic) later? And do post back with your...- sad_katz

The ATH-AD900 Thread
Thanks for the amp recommendations. While I don't find my pair fatiguing, some who did tried mine said they were a bit on the bright side. Is the AD900 considered as "recessed"? I haven't been able to find AD900's frequency response graph so I cannot properly equalize it (my inexperienced...- sad_katz

The ATH-AD900 Thread
Any recommendation for an amp for AD900? I was thinking of going for fuller bass. Is AD900 better with SS amps or tube amps? I heard it with stock EF2 and I think it was decent. Any other ideas?- sad_katz

Headphones for lots of music and gmaing. :)
DT770PRO - no idea aside that it needs an amp to sound their best. A900 - I've used them and I can say their plenty good for gaming. The bass is more bloated than I'd like though. HD595 - seems like a safe bet. Also open for better amps/dac IIRC. Try to audition them to be sure. I'd...- sad_katz

Stick with the 595. They should be more open to upgrades (amps & dac) compared to the HD555 / AD700. Don't know about the DT770.- sad_katz
