ATH-m50x vs Fostex T50RP MK3
I humbly ask for this community to help me decide which headphone I should go for.I've heard good things about both headphones but the new Fostex is supposed to be absolutely incredible sounding for the price. It's also rather hard to drive or so I've heard. I've heard that it doesn't reach its full potential until you plug it into a ~$350 wall powered AMP... How will it fair with the Dragonfly v1.2? Should I perhaps go with the ATH-m50x because its V signature may suit me better?
A few things about me;
- I mainly listen to EDM, but I do NOT require basshead levels of bass. However I am on the more bassy side of things. I like a snappy thumby bass, not necessarily rumbling bass. As far as I've heard, both these headphones have nice bass.
- I have the Audioquest Dragonfly v1.2 as my DAC.
- I like to listen to music at rather high volume.
So on to the question;
Which headphone do you think will fit me best?
