how do u like the akg?

i tried the beyers they weren’t for me, they were good, but not for that price, also the soundstage is really boxed in…

Have the new one, but made in Ireland Build quality is great

Differences in one correlates with the other.

E.g minor differences in dac quality wil not be perceived in a low quality source

Minor changes in amp characteristics will not be apparent if ur drivers arent precise

So in most cases, you need the best source & best listening device, then amp,. – invest in power/quality, based on the listening device capabilities & power requirements also a dac if that is necessary.
