I have finally realized that it will take time before I can afford the system I have been researching and really dream of - so I need to find a good compromise until I start making the big bucks
I have looked at:
HD598
Q701
HE-400
HE-4
K550
DT880
DT990
What often happens when I listen to opera, is that the sound is too big for most headphones, and they start distorting - especially when dramatic tenors and sopranos sing. It can be solved by turning down the volume significantly, but I often want the sound to be full and loud. I feel that it is often due to a lack of middle and bottom and too much focus on raw bass and treble. I want the warmth to remain and the sound to remain big, detailed and powerful.
I am aware that some of the headphones may require significant amplification, and that it may not be had within my price range, please consider this when voting.
PS: Is this website legit: http://onecv.info/hifiman-he500-headphones-electronics_p5717.html?offer_id=B005DL2JCI !?
Thanks in advance!!
