I'm REALLY liking my new DV336i, even though it is still in the break-in period. The Senn HD595s sound pretty decent with it but now that I have a new amp, of course, I want new cans.
Was thinking seriously about the K601, same price range as my HD595, but now I'm thinking about spending more and really get the most out of this amp. HD650 is, for the moment, more than I'd like to spend. From what I've already gathered by reading other posts, DT880 might not be best for me. Unless someone can add something to my list of possibilities, they currently consist of HD600, K601 or K701.
As the thread title implies, I listen mainly, if not exclusively, to pop/rock/alternative/indie/euro/techno/electronica type music with mostly girl singers. My apologies to the classical lovers. I love classical too, but I know how to buy this stuff and classical is 'over my head', so to speak when it comes to shopping for it. Way too many choices/variables.
In conclusion - I want to spend ~$300 on some new cans but don't want to waste it by experimenting. Advice would be appreciated.
Note: I am prepared to spend more, if necessary, but trying to keep the cans $ amount relative to the amp $ amount, if that makes any sense.
