Searching for an upgrade to the M50s. I love the natural fullbodied sound / imaging, the deep textured bass and PRaT. Dont like the recessed mids./Highs. Still, IMHO this can does less wrong than the technical superior / more expensive cans. Looking for better resolution, PraT, Speed, Mids, Highs. Dont care much about soundstaging. Preferred them to:
T1 (the m50: more PRaT, more fun, more body, deeper bass on antelope zodiac / Phonitor)
HD800 (midfi setup, preferred the more fullbodied HD650 in that setup)
HD600 (on gilmore lite - less deep bass, less prat(energy/bass issue), less energy, less fun, better resolution, better highs than M50)
HD650 (on GL, veiled, dont want to go the balanced route, preferred HD600)
DT880 / 250 (unbalanced, but love the solid beyer highs)
DT770 (unbalanced, but love the solid beyer highs)
MD5000 (no body / weight at all)
All AKG´s
So i am looking for the clarity and speed of the HD600 and the Prat, Imaging and Deep Bass of the M50
I use a RME ADI-2 DAC (Like Benchmark DAC1) and a Gilmore Lite amp.
I dont think that even a balanced recabled HD600 will have enough Bass and Energy for a fun/PRaT presentation. So i am looking at the Denon D2000.
