Yo guys I'm new here and was just looking to get my first nice pair of headphones. I currently have the Bose triports which I still intend to use at school/out and what not. But I would like to get me a premium pair of headphones just to use at home for top quality listening. I was however, trying to skimp out on the whole headphone amp thing cause I'm fairly new to it and I would like to have a headphone that wasn't so reliant on it. Are there any full size headphones you guys would recommend that sound awesome without necessarily employing an amp? I was eyeing the AKG K701 cause I found one well under the normal $400 price tag (DJDeals.com has em for $240) but I read an article here that basically bashed them. I've also heard alot about Beyerdynamics DT 880/990 and the Sennheiser HD 600/650, though from headphone.com's graphs, they all seem pretty damn identical in terms of sound quality. Oh, and I would like to keep the price around $300 or so.
