Hi all!
Came into some cash and looking for suggestions for my next level up. Been out of the market for years and need help catching up. It's really frustrating that there are so few places near me to try these out in advance.
- looking to spend around up to $1k including headphones and portable amp(if needed.) Would prefer closed back.
- Longtime rig is a 580 precision, and a fiio e11.
- Need something on the warmer, less bright side. Im guessing that I'm a little over sensitive on the treble side, certain headphones sound almost painful/shrill to my ears, eg grado 80. I recently tried a focal elegia, similar experience. Also tried an Audeze 2 which was closer to what I was looking for.
- Not a overly analytical focused person, I tend to be willing to trade that for more "musical" gear. Eg Rega, Rotel.
- listen to mostly rock, folk, blues, jazz. Not overly bass heavy.
Thanks so much in advance guys, kinda psyched to step it up.
