I'm stuck in a bit of a dilema here and would really appreciate advice.
Just a bit of background info first...
I listen almost exclusivley to metal particulary death metal.
I listen to almost all my music through my computer.
I have a pair of HD650's (i know - maybe not so good for metal) with no external DAC or amp, so just plugged straight into my computer (i know!)
However, i have £300 and 4 options to upgrade my listening experience.
1) Im on the order list for a pico with DAC, and wait for that and stick with my HD650s plugged into my pico.
2) Cancel my order for the pico, and buy some other DAC/Amp with the money. (Can't really spend much more than £300 for now though. Maybe more later)
3) Cancel my order for the pico, sell my 650s and buy a pair of grado's (SR225's or SR325i's i was thinking)
4) Cancel my order for the pico, sell my 650s, forget about headphones for now, and get the Logitech Z-5500 and blast them away.
I'm well and truley stuck and don't know what to do. All i do know is that i can't listen to metal through these 650s unamped for much longer!
I would really appreciate some advice. Thanks.
