100+ Head-Fier
Since i've decided to create a profile here, i jumped on the Massdrop Akg-K7xx for a gift to myself for my bday... Teetered between which DAP i wanted to upgrade from ipod touchs & nano's, which i finally decided to place an order on the Questyle Qp1r. Well now i'm looking at adding a mid level planar headphone to the mix. I have a pretty eclectic blend of music i'll listen too, so depending on what genre i'm listening, the sound type varies.
So since these two deals have been dropped or hinted to drop soon, i need some impressions/opinions from more seasoned audiophiles. Aside from usage of the Qp1r (when it eventually arrives), i other ways of listening to the cans would be either at home thru my Anthem mrx-510, or at work with my ipods that i feed into a Bravo audio v2 (my intro to tube amps).
Based on what i've read the he-400i sticks out due to detachable cables, only due to not wanting to stand in kitchen with a set on, with a 6 foot long cable... I like to drown out the wife & daughter as i prep/cook the meals But i don't want the cable to be prime reason to pass on the Fostex.
Looking forward to any comments/advise or impressions based on ownership of either product lines, products!
