$3000-4000 headphone with $500 gear is a waste of hp resources. You need at least a gear of $2K to truly start to hear what your 3-4K headphone is capable of.
I just share this as I still see some completely ignorant posts with 4K headphones and $200 DAPs.
Please, do your research before a multi thousand dollar purchase to avoid disappointments.
Completely false and an audiophile myth. Once you actually understand basic electrical engineering, digital signal processing theory, and physics you'll finally understand how wrong a blanket statement like this is. Don't believe it, try a level matched blind test between a well measured $200 DAC/Amp combo (that can drive the headphones well w/o distortion) and a $10k DAC/Amp stack yourself. If you've long believed in audiophile magic not explained by modern DSP, physics and EE it will shatter your reality. Let's all focus on the LCD-5 and not propagate more misguided info.
