Tested the hd700 dt 880 and dt990 both 32ohms and t70p

Tracks used Muse hysteria, Bitter Zee Avi. Amp RSA dark star


When Muse is played the dt990 owns all of them while the t70p trails behind closely. The 990 has the bass authority and it's fun. The rest sounds not thick enough. I would say it's clinical and clear.

Tried bitter sweat. Since it's a simple song. Most of phones perform pretty similar.

The shop doesn't carry the hifimans.

Do you think it would be better than 990 and also the same signature?

Would visit one over the weekend.

So far I'm leaning towards the 600ohm dt990.

Finally I was able to test the HE500. The bass is WOW couple with the sub bass it's instant eargasm.
The mids and highs are out of this world. 
 
Now I'm contemplating between 990 600ohm, HE500 and lastly HE400 ( wasn't able to try ) .
 
All of these are able to be powered by the ODAC/O2 properly?

Decided to go ahead with the HE500 after casually listening it through a Lyr . Hopefully the O2 will do the job.
 
Thanks guys and I'd provide a short review once I listen to it.
