So I recently decided to purchase the Sennheiser HD800. I'm a big fan of the Sennheiser sound, and I've recently come into a budget that allows for them. I've previously owned the HD598 and HD650, and currently use ie8s as my go to iem.
However, I've heard that the HD800s are difficult to drive. I'm working with a budget of around $1200 for both a dac and amp. Is it plausible to run the hd800s with a dac/amp in that budget range? And if so, do you have any combos/suggestions that you'd recommend?
If it matters, I tend to listen to indie, folk, blues, alternative rock, jazz, classical, and occasionally some house/trance.
Thanks!
