Read my review below.

Looks nice and all but no 6.35 jack

I do prefer K712 over HD 600

 

[Bob A (SD)]

  Can any one recommend me short cable for HD600 which would be an upgrade?

You don't have to break the bank

Agreed. I personally use the one you've linked from Amazon/eBay. It's a good cable.

How do these compare to the Fidelio X2's?

What amp around $100 can I buy to connect to the HRT microstreamer? Preferbally the most clear one.

 

[PinkyPowers]

How mobile does it need to be?

You're using the Microstreamer, so I imagine this is for portable use? Look into the FiiO E12

 

[dakanao]

How mobile does it need to be?

As mobile as possible, but I'm willing to sacrifice mobility for clarity.

 

[PinkyPowers]

You'd have to spend significantly more to do better than the FiiO E12. Read the reviews. It's said to be an excellent amp.

The E12A is for IEMs. The regular E12 is what you'd want for the HD600.

I'll be using them with my laptop btw. Is the E12 very clear but without any additional harshness?

 

[PinkyPowers]

Between the E12 and the Cayin C5, you can't go wrong.

i had the e12 for a day. it was immediately thinner and harsher sounding than my now sold geekout 720. i returned it the next day. i didn't burn it in though

 

[dakanao]

I can get the Vali for cheaper than the E12, how will the clarity be with the HD 600?

 

[PinkyPowers]

Going full-size desktop amp will sound nicer than any portable device.

Vali is an excellent choice for the hd600. Extremely resolving. This is definitely a better match for you
