Good buys. Now unsub from r/headphone and any other headphone community while you still can!

Best advice I've ever heard next to, "disregard females, acquire currency."

You want to hear another one?

Get a memory foam neck pillow.

If you have a recliner chair or a similar (we call it dad chairs in my country) chair, this works wonders and the HD6.. range is not bothered or moved off your ears. I've dozed off numerous nights in the chair listening to any kind of music since I've gotten one as a gift from my gf. Best hardware upgrade ever to my headphone listening system :)

Yep! :) They've come far since the ones where you had to inflate them and pass out from breathing too much :D

I found a thread asking people their top 5 at different prices or something. Many people said HD600 over and over. They rate good from Crinacle. It sounds like audiophile "purists" prefer the 600. I do a lot of EQ tuning with all of my equipment. especially car audio. So a good reference is also important to me.

Also Sweetwater has 2 or 3 years no interest.. so I pulled the trigger. I've got the Atom amp + and a Fiio dac but I'm looking at the Dx3pro+ I like the screen and people like the clicking knob.

Sounds like a nice setup! Currently trying to settle on a good pair of headphones and a dac/amp setup. Thanks for the reply!
