New Head-Fier
Hello Head-Fi community,
I’m a long-time user of the AirPods Max and AirPods Pro (1st gen), but I recently became interested in wired audio gear. After doing some research, I made the following purchases with the goal of stretching my dollar and maximizing the price-to-performance ratio as much as possible:
I’m thrilled with my new setup, but I’m curious to hear your thoughts. How did I do? Did I get a good deal? Could I have done better? Should I have bought a different setup for $650? Any tips and suggestions are welcome!
Also, if I had to return one of the three items (AKG N5005, Sennheiser HD 6XX, iFi Audio Micro iDSD Signature Finale), which one should it be and why?
Looking forward to hearing from you all!
