Beyerdynamic DT 880
Sennheiser HD 650
Shure E2C
Grado SR 225
AKG K 401
I'd be using them to lisen from my computer and my ipod mostly, possibly my turntable when I fine the money to get one :lol: |
The first two (Beyer DT 880, Senn HD 650) are WAY overkill for most PC soundcards and portable players - not only will they not be driven to anywhere near their full potential, but they actually reveal the shortcomings of such low-end sources. And the AKG K 401 is not ideal, either, as it will be seriously underpowered by your sources. Those three headphones definitely require a relatively large, relatively expensive dedicated headphone amp (NOT one built into a DJ mixer, which is of poor quality) in order for those three headphones to even get loud enough, let alone sound anywhere near their best.
