Hello ,
Recently i ordered the new M11 pro from fiio official site.
Among these two Audio technica MSR7B and AKG K712 which will be a better match with m11 pro sound quality wise.
Any other headphones that i can purchase within this budget that are better than these?
I don't have the budget for senheisser 660s or the Hifiman Sundara.
Thanks in advance.
The MSR7B will be, most likely, better match for anything portable (most portable devices), since the K7-- series requires serious (preferably, in my experience - tube) headphone amp. The better the amp, the more they shine.
As for sonic preferences mentioned in the last post, IMO, K7-- series are better that anything from the Sennheiser HD6-- due to the impulse response which makes them faster, livelier and less laid back, and even some other traits.
I have had at one point both K701 and HD600 and did some thorough A-B on one solid state amp that drove them both equally (rather) well, was neutral with a hint on analogue-ish sounding, and was tuned around the HD6-- series.
I have ended up using the K701 that much more (over 90% of time) that I felt no need for keeping the HD6--.
But make no mistake, the K7-- series from AKG were made in a different era for different purposes than mobile, so the MSR7b should be a whole lot safer bet when powered with portable devices.
