    Okay that's fine as haven't hit the 3.5x yet :) It's okay I found a website that sells them, called Epiphany Acoustics. Thanks for all your help, I will definitely keep these and use them old Samsung Galaxy headphones for when I cant be bothered haha :) These are a great recommendation thanks :)

    Ahh I see, thanks for explaining, I Didn't realise the Dac would put such a small volume, I actually dont mind having the O2 amp plugged in as it is battery powered and lasts very long, I might either sell the O2 amp and buy the O2+Odac combo which is USB powered I believe. Or just buy the ODAC...

    I might actually buy the M50x's today and see how they compare as I don't really have a lightweight portable solution that doesn't require an amp. I will have 30 days to send one back :)

    Yes of course but if I try to just plug my Headphones into a line out of the Odac, would the sound be about the same as my laptops volume? because im fine if it is. As I don't want to use the amp when watching movies etc. My piano is a VST and played on the laptop, and I use a midi controller...

    Hey I have been using the DT770pro for about a day now and my first impressions are really good, the bass is great and not too overpowering, They are quite hard to drive even through the O2 amp but only use the amp when playing piano. I think I need a Dac though. I can't say if I prefer this...

    Oh well I am grateful anyhow, I would love to live in the US, I hate the people here haha. Yes it's got variation for just about anyone's tastes here in Europe, I don't drink much beer though as I rarely drink alcohol but still enjoy a Cognac now and then. (I'm a little young to enjoy such...

    Ahaha okay :) Oh man that would be one hell of a night :P I have offered many beers for various things such as Forum advice, Sheet music, general help and not one has been accepted. One day someone will accept my beer, I promise it's not spiked. I will let you know how I feel about the...

    Yes I understand, I will try my best to judge them fairly and will let you know how they change over time. I can always send them back if needed. Of course I will try to give as much detail as possible on how they fair against others I have tried. BTW do you have paypal? If you do please PM me...

    Oh I see thanks for that explanation, I have a Clevo P170sm laptop that has a 5.1 sound card that has line out I think. I have not checked. Wow I just listened to that video, the beats sound crap haha. On that particular test I loved the M50s, but I was watching with crap headphones that are in...

    It was kinda my thinking that higher impedance usually means more clarity and performance. I heard that the Odac was a good choice as it doesn't change the sound signature like lots of other Dacs . For example I had the Asus U7 which I didn't like very much. I had already set the budget so was...

    Thank you for all your help, I literally just cancelled the M50x's and went for the Beyerdynamic dt770pro 250 ohm as they are on amazon now and will get them tomorrow. I can just use my laptop DAC and use the O2 amp with that? is that okay? I figured I may as well give them a go as they look...

    Wow these are some really interesting things to consider, yes it wasn't the lack of bass on the 598's that was the biggest problem, it was the fact the drivers kept rattling making a horrible sound. The DT770Pro 80ohm is actually cheaper over here than the M50x, at the moment for me, looks and...

    Hey thanks for all the recommendations I actually enjoy a bit of bass and believe me it makes piano sound a lot more modern. I actually had the Sennheiser HD598's but I had to return them because of the bad bass like you said, in fact when I played deep bass notes on piano the drivers rattled to...

    Hey wow thanks for that response, I am grateful for the effort. I am in the UK and the difference in price between the M50 and M50x is about £20, the M50x's are only £120 and the M50's are £100 so my budget is <£150. I heard soundstage isn't expected to be that great with closed back headphones...
