Hi!
I have been gaming on a pair of ATH-AD900X's that I have had to repair the jack on several times due to a mishap on a plane. (Sat up too quickly and broke the damn jack right off.) After a year and a half of being okay on a new jack that I soldered myself, they seem to have finally given up on me.
Anyway, I am looking for new recommendations. The AD900X appealed to me primarily because of the very accurate soundstage that they boasted, and while they served me well in that regard I am hoping to move to something that has a tad more in the lows (though I don't need heavy bass the 900s really were light). I am looking for a new pair that has a good soundstage for gaming and music (hip-hop, DnB, Electronica, Alternative), and also has a bit more in the way of "oomph" if you will.
As another note, I think I want to go for a pair of closed or semi-closed back cans. The leakage (in both directions) was too much for me with the AD900xs. Thanks!
Also if you could include what DAC you would include with your recc let me know.
