bassy.. muddy without an amp.
All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.
Xonar STX will do the job, or?

Ordered a pair, 110 USD was too tempting...
Now I just got to get either a DAC or the Xonar.... What say you, which would I be best off with?

I got the Xonar STX for my M50's even though they dont really need to be amped. I love it so much because it has a built in amp to drive higher Ohm headphones and the sound is just amazing. Just my two cents.
Mixed reviews mostly, i'm holding out for the D2000s..........hopefully i can try them at a headphone meet beforehand.

I really like the way the D2000 sounds. However I had to switch to a different headphone because of the common D2000 frame/headband failure. I think the D5000 and D7000 also use that same frame.

Do they? Well i'd be psst if i dropped $500 on a pair of sexy wood grained phones to have that happen.......
^ Friend you are comparing a pair of closed phones to a pair of open cans........

AD1100s - Need to be EQ'd to ge the best out of them. Nice power handling BUT and here is a BIG BUT they arms that hold the headphones are very weak and crack FAR too easily. Mine started cracking within two weeks and failed within a month and a half. Still need to ship them off to be repaired.
Verdict... p1ss poor quality.... The sound just doesnt meet my expectations in any way whats all ever...
Its cheap boomy bass, no high mid.... Lots of music they simply do not play...

Check out Ultrasone or the M-Audio Q40, supposed to be nice budget basshead phones.
