Bit of a tricky question. I want to upgrade from Philips X2 headphones. But I just want more of everything it offers. More bass, more slam, more highs, more mids... etc.
So far I have LCD-2 in mind.
Is there anything else? I listen about 50% drum and bass / dubstep and 50% ambient electronic. And occasionally Pink Floyd - TDSOTM.
I say tricky because I really don't want a thread full of answers referring me to the Boom thread - headphones that do great bass but nothing else. I have Dt770 PRO 80's for that heh.
Not put off by closed backs but I really like the wide soundstage that open ones bring.
Also I don't mind buying used if it is in perfect condition.
Amp wise - yamaha a-s700 for now. If I get some cheaper phones I will get better dac etc.
Budget £1k maybe £1250 which is $1200 maybe $1500.
Thanks.
