I currently have a pair of Audio Technica ATH-AD900x. I love them. The sound stage, the more neutral sound, the 'accurate' bass I guess? It seems like the Hifiman headphones will give me something similar, just a lot better?
At this point I'm willing to spend about 1000AUD, maybe up to 1300. That would get me the Ananda (1000), or the Sundara and a JDS Labs Atom stack (about 1000 too). If I bought the Ananda, I would in the future buy a proper stack, or maybe a $200 amp/dac combo to pair with it for a while before upgrading? Then there's the widely loved HD600, about the same price as the Sundara. I listen to a lot of music with acoustic instruments and heavy vocal focus, while also enjoying a fair bit of rock. Nothing too bass heavy, if that matters.
Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? Other headphones that might work well for what I'm looking for? Living in Australia does affect pricing a lot, this is the site I'll be buying from: https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/
Thanks for any help!
