I recently bought my first headphone amp (a Little Dot II) and am enjoying listening through cans for the first time in years from my Marantz CD63 MkII Ki Signature CDP.
The only headphones I have at the moment are Audio Technica ATH-911's which I bought around 1989. I seem to remember in their day the ATH-911's got 5 Star reviews in HiFi mags and were generally well regarded.
My question is if I bought some new headphones would I get much improvement over the the ATH-911's. Unfortunately funds are a bit tight at the moment - I could maybe run to some new Sennheiser HD555's or possibly secondhand HD600's. I am looking for a warmer less bright sound than the ATH911's
