I'm new to this, as you can see. I adore my AKG K240 studio, which I use un-amped out of my iPhone 4, but there are things I hope could be improved. I want a bigger soundstage, and most importantly, more comfort - the AKG is a bit clamping. I was thinking of the Sennheiser HD598 (which I understand has less bass than the AKG, but maybe this would be fixed with a USB DAC/amp that I will definitely buy). The other consideration is BeyerDynamic DT990, but I don't know whether to get the 32 ohm, 250 ohm, or 600 ohm model, or the premium or pro model. I'm concerned that the heavy bass of the DT990 will cause fatigue; the AKG doesn't, which I love. As far as how I plan to use the headphones, they will go with my laptop which in turn will be equipped with a USB DAC/amp (which I have yet to buy).
I would love you hear your thoughts (and please tell me if you have other recommendations).
Thanks!
