So I'm still shopping and reading about planar magnetic headphones with a budget of 1000$ and I came down with two models ; Audeze LCD-2 and Hifiman 560.
Both receive very nice review, but I can't get myself fixed on one.
Some say the hifiman get some electrostatic noise, but some say they are the best in the world with more treble than the audeze. Audeze seems a bit warmer than the hifiman.
So I don't know if I'm better with the hifiman with my Schiit setup. Someone told me Schiit is warm, and more bassy than other, but this is my first kit I've ever listened to (and with Sennheiser Momentum so it's not really a reference yet) and I don't have enough experience in this audiophile world to really know which pair of headphone I need with this kit. I read many articles but no one agree with the other. I tried contacting Jason Stoddard via private message since he has a beautiful collection of headphones and all the Schiit hardware so I could have a reliable advice but I didn't get an answer
I know it's all a matter of personal taste but I can't listen to either model where I live and even if I listen to them on another system it will not sound the same once plugged in my Schiit stack.
That's why I would like advice on these two models and if anyone has auditioned these on Schiit hardware your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much!
