Hey,
I am pretty new to the headphone and Amp/DAC market and need help with a few things.
BTW i listen on Android device (Galaxy S4) though i do have an IPOD 4th Gen if that would be better. (i can move my music.) Next for the headphone AND DAC i have a combined budget of 600 but could go over by about 100 if i really had to.
First off, I love listening to skrillex knife party Zomboy ETC, and need a good set of cans for my needs. I want the base to be VERY strong.
I have heard of a few names:
Ultrasone 750 -- IDK is it better than the 900?
Ultrasone 900 -- Apparently really good, will it meet my needs?
Denon A-HD2000 -- I would buy this if i had bottomless pockets.
Next i need a good DAC/AMP in one kit. Although i could get a seperate kit i use my headphones to and from school so i think that would be a bit beefy...
I have heard of a few names:
fIIo E9 -- Is this good? i dont think its combined though
fIIo E11 -- No DAC? is it still good?
fIIo E17 -- Great functionality but looks ugly!
Theorem 720 DAC -- Im not made of money
JDS labs C5 -- This looks pretty good but doesnt have a DAC.
So i would just like some recommendations tailored to my listening (and my budget $700 at most). I do listen to music with a bit less bass sometimes so the trebles can't be completely crap..
Thanks for helping me out! Also i live in AUS so postage might be a problem but im sure ill find them off ebay or amazon or something.
EDIT: Charging the device at the same time would be a bonus (like the Theorem 720 DAC)
