Well in audio it's way easy to pass the point of diminishing returns which i don't want to do. If i can pay 40% of something for 80% of the performance then that's good for me. When i say bang for buck i don't mean the cheapest item but an item with good value which works alright.

So you bought headphones that are well past the point of diminishing returns, but you're trying to avoid doing the same with an amp?

I still stand by my statement. Those cans are probably the hardest that I have ever heard of to match with a suitable amp. In the end, what you do with that information is up to you though.

I got them for $400 second hand. And i'd say spending 400 on better model headphones is more well spent than spending 400 on an amp.

A closed back counterpart for the HD6XX?

I really enjoy the sound of the HD6XX. However, when I have the urge for some deep bass, I have to look to my other cans. I typically reach for the Ultrasone HFI-680s, that maintain a neutral response with great bass and sub bass, but their sound is
