New Head-Fier
Hello everyone, this is my first post. My name is Max and I'm from Milan, Italy. I'm in love with headphones but I'm far from being an expert. I own a Meze 99 Classic, a Prosone Proline 2500 and, from yesterday, a HIFIman he400i 2020. I never tried planar magnetic before and, to my amateurish ears, they sound simply amazing, very different from the other two headphones I own (that I love). I enjoyed the openness of the sound and the incredible precision! Breathtaking!
I'm using a Fiio m9 from the balanced output to use them and, to me, they sound very well. I never go with the volume beyond 90/95 (it goes up to 130, very Spinal Tap style) and it seems all good. But I've been reading many posts in which experts say that you require a dedicated amp to really make those headphones shine, but to me they sound very well, with dense basses and extremely sharp rendition. Are my ears really not educated? Am I losing something using just a weak Fiio m9?
I'm not one who listens to super high volume so I'm a little confused. Thanks to anyone who might help and have a lovely day!
