What open phones to get next?
My trusty 595's are breaking apart after 6+ years of good service.
They are a great match for my needs, just weak in the bass.
The HD 598 are the current replacement I think, and seem perfectly good.
I would like fairly straight freq response, with low freqs available
- due to some hobby level studio work and audio plugin testing.
Usage: 5+ hours a day
Music: electronic art music, recent indie pop, some bass and classical.
I use a bogstandard USB soundcard box (ESI U46) to drive them,
also an old 2x100W Denon pma700 amp at hand,
both of these are up for replacement though, "soon".
Thanks for any tips
