You won't be disappointed with the 339. What's your Dac budget? What are you looking for?

I haven't been able to try any orthodynamics on the 339 yet though, but I personally cannot go any higher with the DT990 600 after 2.5 o' clock on the volume knob (treble heavy electronic music!).
umm ~600 would be alright, i don't want to go too crazy
right now i'm using a matrix mini-i, so something definitely better!
DrDustCell hey which part of China are you in?im in China too im in Beijing...its nice to have a fellow head-fier in Beijing too hahha...
It always amazes me to see how loud you can get it. With the same beyers I can only get up to 9 o'clock. 9.30 max and with the senns its just 1 mark on the volume dial.

edit: maybe the difference in our volume knob level is because i almost never listen to western music (i.e. music made in the western hemisphere) where the loudness war runs uncontrollably rampant.. i just acquired MJ's album "Invincible", played "Unbreakable", put on my HD650's, and I was immediately forced to crank my usually 1:30 to around 10.. does my theory have any weight?
Around 9:-10: with the HD-800. Anything over that and I'd be eligible to apply for disability payments.
