I tried those Fidelio's but the clamping force and weight of them coming from Beyerdynamic's was too much for me.
Apparently, transformer coupled amps might be the way to go with the Denon's but it sounds like it would be cheaper to just get a different pair of headphones lol
In reality even the ADI-2 is past the performance to cost ratio. Technically speaking you can buy better measuring dacs for less money...depends how much stock you put into ASR measurements though. And in reality most of those measurements are not even audible. So something ranked #1 wont sound any different to something ranked 50th. Money is best spent on better cans if you were to spend more. Then again the 9200 could easily be considered endgame too! It's a funny old gameIt turns out the Denon AH-D9200 headphones are really easy to drive so play nice on most amps. First world problems, but I was hoping to upgrade further to get even better sound out of them. The ADI-2 can EQ which I've been playing with as well, that's going to take a while. Each upgrade I've done in the past is usually a noticeable improvement in some way and so are the new Denon headphones, but I couldn't really put in words how!
There is no shortage of stuff to upgrade to, just depends how much argh
I'll do some research but might leave things a couple of years and just enjoy this new setup.
Focal Bathy is the best Bluetooth gets atm

I think those Sony sound very thin personally. Those Q45 get good reviews and for the price... no brainer.
Very nice setup, the warmth of the Violectric balances out the highly detailed sound of the Chord, leaving a perfect mix. As for the DT1990, I love mine and wouldn't be without them.New setup up for me,
Totally blown me away with these Violectric amps, they just munch through high ohm headphones, they sound so lush yet punchy, the bass is so dense and palpable but still clean, turns the DT1990Pro's into another headphone, the Qutest also pushes ton of space and depth into the mix.
New headphone added to collection: DT1990Pro
Why sell the Maxwell’s? What’s wrong with them?HD660s2 received today. First impressions are pleasing!
Audeze Maxwell and likely HD560s to be sold now. Find the HD660s2 decent for gaming alongside my Tygr 300r also so no need for tow many sets
I'm just not going to use them - I really just don't like closed back headphones it seems. Having used the Tygr, Hd560 and now Hd660s2 with fps games, I just can't go back to the less spacious sound of the Maxwell. Plus, no matter how much I eq them, I can't get them how I want to sound for gaming.
I’m in Cornwall, sell them to me!
lol - I'm spending the weekend making absolutely sure they aren't for me haha. I don't think they are particularly fragile - same with the Penrose before. But then I'm not in the habit of throwing my stuff around like some gamers
