That is odd. I was lead to believe the HD800s had very few faults. Please explain in detail please.
Sybilant highs, anemic bass ecc

It's not even remotely precise when it's cutting the bass completely. If you say i must compensate this with dark amplifiers that's the opposite of what you're saying
Imo, maybe just buy a used schiit vali and geek out. If you still don't like it, they can be sold at minimum loss. After that, maybe consider to move to other phone, such as th900. Even though, I still prefer the bass impact of hd800 to either lcd or th900, but th900 have more quantity which you might like

Why the vali? I don't really like bass in my ears, and went in thinking of buying the Senns as i pretty much liked everything from them, in-ears, HD600, Amperior, Momentum. But i could not forgive half of my library sounding pretty bad in exchange for some limited gain in the other half.
I also loved how much they are comfortable, but i already knew that

What is a proper DAC for you? Are we talking balanced?

How would these pair with a Little Dot Mk IV?
Utter crap. I had that combo before. It was muddied, closed-in and just ... bad. The HD800 can do a lot more better than this.
On a side note - I am going to try the following combo:
Source: Schiit Modi 2 Uber + Wyrd / Audiophillieo 1 PP
Dynamic amp: Eddie Current 4-45
Dynamic cans: Senn HD800
E-stat amp: KGSSHV
E-stat cans: Stax SR009
While my MSB Analog died on me and is undergoing repairs, my Emotiva has been sent home for use with my Teton. That leaves my office-rig DAC-less. Perhaps this $150 DAC that is the Modi 2 will give me some enjoyment while I wait for the Yggy? Time will tell.
