Look into SZ2000 and Pro900 if you want more.
I don't want more - i like "studio monitor" sound

I'd appreciate some advice on driving 770-80s.
Fiio E12 or E12a?
(sorry if this question has already been asked)
From my experience, these headphones does not pair well with DAPs or portable DAC/AMP combos. I have been pairing them with my Astell & Kern AK Jr, which has enough power to drive a lot of headphones. They were not able to drive the Beyers to high volumes, but gives an amazing soundstage and definition to the sound. If i plug these headphones to my laptop, the bass is bloated and mids are recessed, its very uninspiring to listen to. These heaphones sound amazing through a desktop headphone amplifier like the Schiit stack.
If you want a portable pair of headphones, you should consider buying a different pair which is easier to drive. I always prefer in-ears for portable use and over-ears for home use.
I have noticed significant changes in the sound after a burn-in of 100 hours, after which there is no noticeable change. The lows became more controlled and mids were no more recessed after the burn-in when powered by a proper amp.
