I've been a lurker around here for sometime but decided to get back into the headphone realm.
Right now I have a pair of Denon AH-D5000's which sound good to me, just way too neutral and too closed in. The only other headphones I've owned are the Ultrasone Pro 2500's which I don't recall liking ended up selling them months later.
I've been really toying the idea of getting some open full size headphones and something under $1000 used. My thoughts are trying maybe something planar like the Hifiman HD500's or LCD2's or possibly even something like the HD800s. I just have no idea how they are.
As far as amps, this past week I finally picked up a decent amp from here and got the Schiit Vali and Modi. I just don't really have any headphones that really utilize such a marvelous setup. The D5000's don't really benefit from them much.
I listen to a really wide range of music so trying to narrow down what they should specialize in would be tough.
What would be worth looking at?
