New Head-Fier
just dipping my toes back into the headphone space after redoing my HT and needing something else to research
i have currently in my headphone collection:
Ultimate Ears triple fi10
sennheiser 558
sennheiser momentum v1
Oppo PM-3
Bose QC35
now that ive discovered desktop DACs/Headphone amps, im looking at whats out there as far as options compared to my desktop setup of a pair of audioengine A5+ with a monoprice 10" studio sub.
the HD6xx seem highly reveiwed especially at their price point, $220.
but is there a noticeable step up at high priced options, eg focal, hifiman, audeze, etc
these will be primarily used in my home office via dac/amp, jds atom/sanskrit mk2 combo.
should i just get the hd6xx or look at the upper end alternatives?
how much are the diminishing returns past the hd6xx?
