Surprised I haven't seen more people recommending the LCD-2 or other orthodynamics...
Unless the OP wants to clarify further ~ the budget to spend is $1000USD.
That means no flagship.
Bright for the most part due to their revealing nature ~ certainly the DT880, DT990 and even the flagship T1 will not tolerate a bad recording.
The build quality though is top of the heap, general house sound is very neutral. If your old man is a typical audiophile in that he loves
neutral, flat sound then he might like them.
However without a serious head amp ~ most of them will under deliver big time.
Any thoughts on Headamps? My arrogant dad is really proud of his "nothing-made-in-china" collection of equipment. Although I am really thinking of getting one of those impressive china brands. Little dot or darkvoice. Tested some models for both and i was really impressed. Really affordable too.

Hi, I have a question. Would it be possible to use the headphone on his Hi-Fi amplifiier?
There is no headphone jack, but i could get a rca-3.5mm convertor. Probably will lose a bit of quality. But what im curious about, is whether a hi-fi amplifier can be use on headphones.?
I think the question is more which headphones can be used with hi-fi amplifiers. You'd be able to hook an orthodynamic like the LCD-2 or HE-6/HE-500 directly up to the amp, but that would probably destroy most other headphones unless you listen to them at an extremely low volume.
HD650 was definitely my first guess.
