I've been using the same ATH-M50's for about 5 years, and I feel like it's due for an upgrade. I've been looking into buying a new desktop headphones for my primary uses of music and gaming. As my apartment is normally pretty quiet, I'm looking into buying an openback headphone with a desktop amp. Looking into the forums, I'm a bit intimidated by these expensive amps since the only amp I ever used was a portable headphone amp that came with my ATH-M50.
Specifically, I'm looking into buying the Sennheiser HD650's but I'm not sure if it's the right choice for what I'm looking for - especially if I don't drop that much cash on the amp. Is there a good decision for me without dropping more than $100 on an amp?
I want a richer sound than my current headphones, as I've noticed that the sound can be tinny without the presence of bass. To be specific, I like a warmer, bass sound without muddling the overall sound quality. I used to own a pair of on-ear Bose headphones that was too much bass and made everything sound very deep(?). I'm not very knowledgeable, but I hope browsing the forums will help me out.
