You should really ask these headphone question at a place like https://www.head-fi.org/
They steered this first time headphone buyer to an amazing headphone, Meze Empyrean, and 2 great headphone amps, Benchmark HPA4 and Bryston BHA-1. I also use the Benchmark DAC3B and the WyWire Platinum XLR ($400 for 5 feet) for the Meze.
A big audio magazine review of the Bartok compared it with a Mytek and the Bartok did not come across as a world beater. I think the review was in Stereophile.
