still deciding on either the AD900 or MS2

Having owned both AD900 and the SR325is, I strongly suggest that you spend your money on the ATs. The 325/MS2 is just too aggressive for most folks. Amusingly, I have read posts where people say they are good cans if you have a boring source/amp - they will certainly liven things up, but I dont think adding Tabasco sauce to devilled eggs necessarily makes for a world-class omelette. You will be happier with the AD900 - just ignore a lot of the hoopla about 'brightness'. They are a lot closer to my idea of neutral than the 325is.

No cans as this year (never say never) I just need balanced dac/amp and thinking of recabling my 325i with moon audio as well as redetermining my blue dragon to balanced.

After just buying the Rs1i's thats going to be me for cans for a while. Cables is what I'm going spend money on this year... just recently realised (again) what a difference different cables make! I've just spent £30 on a pair of handmade solid silver interconnects and they better than my £250 Atlas..!
 
(actually thats a lie.. I will be buying more headphones, who am I trying to kid...)

I really want to try the DT 880 - 600 Ohm very soon. But I can't tell yet if I'll be keeping them.
 
If they don't please me, I'll try out the DT 1350 instead.
 
I also wanted the PRO 900 the day I got my HFI-780s. I guess I will make an in between stop with the PRO 750 or 2500 later this year first, though.

Any good old AKG I can get my hands on for less than a fortune. Getting the urge to try something different from the K701's. Will be keeping a lookout for K501's, K340's, Sextetts and maybe even consider K1000's.
 
Or theres always a chance AKG might release something new and exciting.

LCD-2 Will be my 4th so far this year, and hopefully the last. After finally reaching the high-end I hope I will be able to stop. Maybe a HE-6 to compliment them in the future or something, but that's about it.
