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?

QUOTE(psychoactive @ Oct 30 2014, 12:35 AM) 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  The HD650 is very much warmer/darker compared to the DT990..? Hmm, I guess I should actually try it out first.

QUOTE(psychoactive @ Oct 30 2014, 07:12 PM) 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.  Thanks for the tip~ I'll do that when I get the chance~  Haiyoo, nobody want my DT990?

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