I actually am a PC gamer. I'll look into it. Thanks for all the help. Cheers!

I grabbed the DT990 pro's 250 ohm, and the asus xonar dg. I think I should be happy!

I got to try these out today at a head-fi meet, and it turns out I really enjoy them. They have way more clarity then I was expecting, and it just over all sounds really nice.

Mad, you know that the Mad Dogs 3.2 are selling at $400? What

Edit: I'm guessing that it's $350 without the cable...

That's the balanced version. You can pick up the normal one for 300.

I know this. I have no interest in the normal version...

Oh, okay. Well, Dan's original pricing was preorder. He previously stated that the price would go to 400 after orders begin to ship, which they have. Sorry you weren't able to pick one up before then.

I will keep my eyes on them. I'm getting feedback that it sounds better than my HP100 so I am very curious about them. I have no interest in the fancy XLR cable... all I need is a 10ft 3.5mm to 3.5mm with a 1/4in adapter and maybe a 4ft cable as well.

On a final note, as I want to buy the Annies, is the e9k too bright? I really don't want the Annies to be bright.

It will be fine, as the Annie is warm and smooth. An amplifier isn't going to drastically change it's tonality. Suince you're a PC gamer, you COULD just buy an Asus Essence STX soundcard which has an amp as strong as the E9K, a great DAC AND Dolby Headphone.

In other news, I won a 2011 Mixamp for $56. Can't complain. No cables or anything, but I have all that.

I wish! I have a laptop. I've just found out that the Annies are Q701's with different pads. I wonder if there is an alternative way of getting pads.

 

[Mad Lust Envy]

You can order them from AKG, they cost like $70 though. If you take the Q701 price, plus the pad price, you're basically buying an Annie anyway, and without the comfortable headband.

 

[Akin]

I guess so. Sneaky AKG

Can you review the HMC660 from superlux?? its like a DT770 but strap with an ant lion mod mic.. well kinda but its bigger

 

[saintrock]

I couldn't justify spending 170$ on a pair of headphones, I cancelled the order. I ordered 2 pairs of headphones, the Panasonic HTF600's and the Superlux HD681's. The HD681's are suppose to really bright with the highs, have low sub-bass and have a particually good soundstage for the mear price of 31$.
