For about  the price of the HE 560 ,you can have this brilliant combo.
It'll make you smile and be so happy you bought them, instead.
Sony MDR-7520 ... These offer incredible sound, very pristine & analytical. 
Tascam UH-7000 ... Unmatched sound quality even at 3x the price.
Stunning sound & affordable audiophile combo.
 
 
Go here to test your headphones......

Yes..
This is a serious audiophile combo for such an affordable price.
If you've taken a look at my user profile, you'll note that i own a lot of gear,....a lot... much of it so much more expensive then what i listed here.
However, for the money, and ive spent a lot of it.......ive not found a set of headphones or a Dac-amp combo, that surpasses this one i wrote about today regarding quality of sound represented.
Its really an incredible set up, and that its super affordable, ......= icing on the cake.

The Tascam is actually designed as a musical interface for home recordists.
However, it actually excels in both regards, as a dac-amp, and recording gear.
It was originally $600, but price dropped
 
here is a bit of info that might give you an idea of this device...
 
-
"The unit has that solid, old-school feel to it—it’s heavy, with elegant meters and the kind of smooth-feeling knobs that you’d expect to find on a product two or three times the 7000’s modest price. In keeping with this solid construction, a traditional power cord lets you know that this item has a proper power supply—no bus-powering or wall warts here. Internally, high-end components like Burr-Brown Converters and a serious internal clock circuit guarantee the kind of high-end performance normally associated with the top interfaces. Despite its position in the lower-midrange, price wise, this box is all high-end in terms of performance and construction.
The grand nature of the UH-7000's sound is partially due to the careful attention spent on selecting parts. In addition to the Burr-Brown PCM4220 ADC, PCM1795 DAC converters and thin film metal resistors, installed is a powerful TCXO clock generator with +/−1ppm precision. 
The internal circuitry is furnished with Burr-Brown's impeccably pure PCM4220 AD converter. This converter uses a high performance chip that was developed specifically for professional audio and boasts a dynamic range of 123 dB (−60dB input, A-weighted) in isolation. Audio signals digitized by the PCM4220 can be sent via USB to the computer or output from the XLR AES/EBU digital output jacks.
For digital-to-analog conversion, the UH-7000 uses the equally impressive Burr-Brown PCM1795."
 
So, the question is........."how does it sound"..
After all, math is math and ears know the difference.
Well, let me give the Sound of the UH-7000 some context...
It sounds better then the "Mojo" or the "Woo Audio Fireflies"  = IMO...
Thats how it "sounds", and @$399.99, it sounds even better.
Add the Sony MDR-7520s to it, and just be careful not to keep turning it up., as that is what you'll find yourself doing because the clarity and resolution of this duo is spectacular. = 2 thumbs up.

Wow that's a full page of music video recommendation! Heaviest page my good ol' nokia have to load from head-fi so far.
I wonder when Head-fi will have proper method for member to recommend songs, as using YT is much less than ideal.
Maybe Spotify/ tidal integration or something?
Will check your recommendation when i have proper gear btw
