Hey Guys and Gals!
So I've had this set of HD555's for about 5 years now and they have given me all they could and have led me here entering into the wonderful world of Hi-Fi.
Now I'm looking to upgrade to either :
AKG Q701
I'm open for any other suggestions around the same price range.
As for running these, from what I've read X1 seems fine on it's own while the Q701 might need a Amp. Since I'm gaming (CS:GO/Dota2 Directional sounds) a fair amount I was wondering if anyone would chime in on some good amp/dac or soundcard setups. I've seen a lot of suggestions for the FiiO e10 or the O2+ODAC combo for the Q701.
Thanks in Advance!
