After reading all the comments, I can come to the conclusion that SP200 is indicated for headphones that are not bright, dry or thin, on the contrary it seems to combine well with headphones preferably with warm sound signature, another solution could be to combine it With an DAC AKM (with a warmer sound), it seems that it will not get along with the DAC ESS (cooler or flat sound), I will take advantage of the SP200 when the topping D90 is presented (with AK 4499), I hope it is a good combo!
Imo
Sp200 is clean and transparent so you're bright headphone it still going to sound bright, or something that has withdrawn mid-range an a slightly forward bass or recessed bass and slightly forward top end are going to sound exactly that way
I owned the dt880 and I have an HD 800 both share a similar signature and I don't like my HD 800 on sp200 there's nothing wrong with sp200 it's just that I prefer HD 800 when I have a tube amp to help fix some of its tonal imbalances
