Hey guys~ I have a DT990, at first I enjoy it, but after awhile, I feel that it is a bit too bright for my liking.. So I was thinking of getting a DT880. But my friend says I'm better off saving up for a HD650.
Any opinions?

before you take the plunge, do checkout the SoundMAGIC HP200 first  nod.gif

Wow, that looks nice.
I've read reviews on it comparing it with the HD650~
Definitely worth a try~

HD650 might be a little dark/warm for your taste, but i too found the DT990 a little bright, sometimes led to unbearable harshness, very picky regarding amp especially neutral/brighter amp is a nono  doh.gif

The HD650 is very much warmer/darker compared to the DT990..?
Hmm, I guess I should actually try it out first.

Yes, a lot of thickness in the low. I suggest a try on HD600 first, i find myself prefer the HD600 more than the HD650.  smile.gif

I'm thinking of getting a pair of Sennheiser HD650, is the Aune T1 a good budget dac to go with it?
Thanks~
