    HE-400 vs Beyerdynamic DT880 (600 ohm)

    I'm getting a second over the ear headphone to compliment my HD650. I feel like the HD650 is great for rock music and most of the pop songs I have, but I want a little more speed, sound stage, and treble for my EDM songs. I was able to get the 880 600 ohm at a recent amazon sale for $220, and...

    Best Amp/Dac Combo for DT 990-250 (currently), hopefully HE-400 (future)

    I'm really close to getting the Schiit Vali but the microphonics and is the sound quality any better than magni/modi or o2/odac combo? Or anything else like the TubeMagic D1 Plus?     Please keep in mind the bang to buck ratio. Will the Asgard 2 and Modi costing $350 sound that much better...

    Where to buy headphones?

    Hey Head-Fi,   Does anyone know of any good places to buy headphones for less?   I think I'm going to pickup a pair of HD650's, as the HE-400's were too heavy.   Are there any challengers to the HD650's for the sub-$400 price range? (Sorry, I haven't been reading up on Head-Fi lately)  ...

    T90, HE-400, and TH600. Which should go?

        I'm trying to cull my rapidly expanding collection and I've decided either the T90, the HE-400, or the TH600 needs to go. In what may come as a surprise to many, I'm leaning towards selling the TH600. I feel like the HE-400 comes close to it in terms of bass impact and excitement - and I...
