Hi just wanted to know if anyone has the mda raw 1. I just ordered mine and wanted to know what would pair best with it. Need a flat but detailed response. It is a neutralish dac so I thought the 6xx or 560s would be efficient to start with. Any suggestions would help. I'm trying to do critical listening and YouTube edits.

I've got the HE6XX but prefer the Hifiman Edition XS over it. The HD65O has less mid bass emphasis, which sounds more accurate to me (have them too). The Audio Technical ADH1000X is what I'm using today and it's great with the best vocals. The 560s is a good value though.
The Sennheiser has a firm clamp, the Edition XS is really big on smaller heads though.
