Out of all those if go with hd650 + o2odac.


O2odac is the best DAC/amp on the planet and the hd650s are arguably the best cans on the planet. I love the way my 650s sound but I can't enjoy them cus the shape of my head they get annoying and I can't wead them more than few minutes.

I ordered a pair of k7xx so I'll let ya know how I like them after I hear them.

I forgot to add that would be to connect to a Sound Blaster X7 and Chord Mojo

Probably the K712 with it's larger sound stage.

Since all of these are good open headphones, your personal tastes will likely be one of the biggest factors. Also, might consider comfort. For that factor, I'd go with the Senns or AKGs over the HiFiMan.

Probably best bet is to narrow down to two, order, demo, and return one

that I read, but do you have enough bass for games or action movies?

My intention was to get second hand or exchange it for any of my current headphones

Might also check out the HE400S. There is currently a deal on refurbished units at HiFIMAN direct for $249.00. That is a very good deal.

HE-400s in Spain costs a little less than the HE-400i.
 
Besides the He-400s usually it not highly recommended by here

Since gaming and movies would take very long hours, I am likely guessing that comfort would play a big part in your choice of headphones. In my opinion, I would go for the HD650's, and the AKG K712. Both of those are very comfortable for long hours at use.

 

[eltorrete]

you think that hifiman  would not be comfortable enough?

 

[cel4145]

I think HiFiMan headphones are (and are generally considered by many) a bit less comfortable than the Senns and AKGs. But "comfortable enough" is so personally subjective, no one can tell you that.

but worth with improved sound?
