Need new headphone setup.
Can they be open headphones which leak sound or do they need to be fully closed? If you can use an open set then consider the HiFiman Ananda with the Topping DX3 Pro+ amp/DAC/Bluetooth combo. For a closed headphone, there are not a lot of great ...

I switched from a Schiit Modi Multibit ver 1 DAC to an old SMSL M8 DAC that I had from a previous headphone desk top set up.  The Schiit gave things a muddy boomy bass.  The SMSL M8 cleaned up the bass without taking anything away from the mids an...
