I primarily listen to EDM (ie Deadmau5, Overwerk) with a mix of bass and nice layered trance-type stuff. Prefer the bass and isolation of closed-back headphones. After some reading I went with the Fostex TH-900mk2 headphones.
I stream off amazon music HD with this for highest bitrate (supposedly).
Current setup:
Headphones: Fostex TH-900mk2
DAC/Amp: Denon AVR-S660H
I think this sounds OK, but before spending any big money curious on thoughts if upgrading to a dedicated DAC/AMP combo would make a difference, or if there are any notable chokepoints in this minimal setup. Thanks!
Headphones will be most of the issue. They are the most sensitive to issues. Mostly how it fits oh your head and the comfort + the frequency response. Depends on your amp and DAC but unless it has really bad performance or a buzzing noise it’s probably fine.
