I can't suggest anything better than the Hero in your stated price range, so that might be the right choice. I would strongly suggest you be very careful in changing power cords, as it could move you away from your stated goal of added warmth. What power cord(s) are you using now?
Warm sounding cables for STAX setup
I'm looking to get some warm sounding cables for my STAX headphone setup. Right now it is:
Bel Canto DAC2 -> STAX SRM-313 amp -> STAX SR-404 headphones.
I'm very happy with this setup, but it could use a little warmth. As it is now the setup is tipped up in the treble, and a bit too forward in the upper midrange/lower treble.
I'm on a strict budget (student) so I don't want to spend too much. And the cables will be bought used.
For RCA interconnects I'm looking at Kimber Hero. Also wouldn't mind trying a power cord, but no idea what to look for.
Thanks
