Is the O2 (Objective2) connected to your computer or the FiiO E10K?

I am using the e10k as a dac and the o2 as an amp. seems to be an improvement in terms of flat response, the e10k was either a bit too bassy or lacking bass depending on whether I put the boost on or not. the pairing seems to be working ok and I think this should work well for me. certainly get's loud enough. I don't have the 770's yet but I imagine it won't have any issues and the bass response should be a bit more natural.

I would have tried talking you out of getting the DT770.
The Soundmagic HP151 headphones would be better.

Is that mixing at a party with a crowd or mixing in private?
I would assume the DT770/80 would add a bass biased to your mixing.
Sony MDR-V6 or MDR-7506 would to me be better for mixing, boring headphones, so very little biased.

mixing for music production. I actually think a bit of bass would be beneficial though, see my other thread for the reasoning on that;

if I don't like the bass and it's not working out i;m thinking I can always correct with something like sonarworks. what are the soundmagic's mostly used for?

I'm not into audio production, so my opinions on the subject is in no way expert.
Soundmagic HP151 is for music enjoyment (my enjoyment), I own the DT770 (80 & 250-Ohm) and the HP151 is like an improved DT770.
