Guys..i need recommendation.

- what you currently have
iPod touch

- what type of usage
95% music. 5% movies.

- source
MP3 + FLAC

- type of music listen to
Rock + Katie Melua + Norah Jones + Acoustic vocal music

- personal requirements
I prefer close can but if it sacrifice quality so much then i'll go for open can. Tight, punchy and fast bass. Clear and crispy mid + high.

- Budget : RM 1k - 1.2k for headphones + 500-700 for amp/dac, Total must not exceed 2k for (Headphones + amp/dac + cabling + pouch)

- Currently eyeing

Grado MS2i, Grado 325i, ATH W1000, Denon D2000, Beyer DT990, AKG K701 (Spoilt for choice...wish there's a shop where i can listen to each)

+ Ibasso D2, any other suggestion ?

One stupid question as this will be my 1st attempt for head-fi...can my Onkyo 705 drive this phones, will i need amp after dac or that Ibasso D2 is enough. Anyone doing bulk here can throw me their package Open for suggestion.
