Long time lurker, first time poster(?)
I spend a lot of time on the PC and I'm a big gamer. I listen to a wide range of music from Drum N Bass and Mindless Self Indulgence to Nils Frahm and Gordon Lightfoot.
I'm using the Massdrop / Fostex TH-X00s with the JDS Labs Element II -- Along with that I have a pair of Yamaha HS-80M's for my speakers. Lately, I've been wanting a little more ... Just more! More fidelity, clarity, a little more bang, looking for a step up in every way.
I've been wondering about getting the Schiit Jotunheim with the multi-bit DAC, but totally open to other suggestions. and Then, for headphones I'd like to stay right around the $1000 ballpark, even going all the way up to $1500 for some kind of Audeze like the LCD2/Closed Back/Classic/XC or something along those lines.
I'm wondering if a speaker like the KEF LS50 Metas would be a big step up from the Yamaha's...
The main thing I'm looking for is a significant step up in quality. I'm looking for some advice on a nice combo, what do you suggest?
