Hey all,
I am contemplating another pair of headphones (again? haha). Right now, here's my set and where I listen to them at, including amps:
Work Setup:
headroom portable amp + A900 closed cans + ipod
Mobile Setup:
iPod + v-moda vibes (no amp)
Home setup:
Headroom Micro Amp (2006) + DT-880 + Dock
Other headphones:
Shure E2Cs and the Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7 QuietPoint.
I'm looking for buffing up this a bit more on what I have. Mostly in my work setup because the A900s are good, I love them, but for classical music I'm not the most fond with them. Also, since they are closed, ears get uncomfortable after some time.
The types of music I listen to, in order:
- Gaming Music (not exactly the midi stuff, chrono cross soundtrack, etc)
- Soundtracks (More of the classicalish stuff)
- Rock/Alternative (More rock than alternative).
The A900s feel very strong when it comes to rock in my opinion, over classical anyways which is where my DT880s really shine at - but they are home, and I don't want to tote them around too much
For bolstering my work setup, I was thinking of getting the HD650, and comparing them to the DT880 and take one of them to work.
Are there any recommendations anyone can make over this plan, or a better complement for headphones?
Thanks
