I have a laptop and I am planning to buy an headphone, an AMP and a DAC, with 500$
I listen to two kinds of music
1. Bands such as Animal Collective, Portishead, Sufjan Stevens, Max Tundra etc.
2. Modern and contemporary classical music (Wagner, Dutilleux, Messiaen).
I am used to in-ear headphones.
I am hesitating between
- AKG K701 + Heed Audio CanAmp + EMU 202
- SEN HD650 + EMU 0404
I hope one of the members could help me to choose between these options, as I will not be able to try these headphones. My musical tastes may help you to know what the best option is specifically for me.
I think I especially value the details, and the soundstage as regards modern classical music.
I have spent a long time on these forums, so I know a lot of people are facing these options, but I would appreciate to have an answer according to my musical taste ; it may be the most important part when choosing a first headphone.
Thank you for your time, and your answers.
