I've been lurking head-fi for a while now trying to decide what headphones would work best with the kind of music I listen to. Which would be mostly electronica: sts9, bassnectar, gorillaz, dj shadow, shpongle, etc. Also a little progressive rock: Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, King Krimson
What I saw recommended most often for electronic music was Beyerdynamic DT880, AKG702, Sony SA5000, and Denon AH-D2000/5000.
Due to either budget constraints or the fact that I want a closed back headphone, I've decided to go with the Denon AH-D2000 with a Nuforce uDAC USB DAC Amp.
Is there anything I should consider before I decide 100% on this combo? Also, I need a new MP3 player that can play FLAC, what are some of the most affordable alternatives out there? The iPod's just not going to cut it anymore.
EDIT: Also, any suggestions on a good place to purchase this stuff? Are there any sales on any websites for Christmas coming up soon?
