I'm not a big fan of the warmer sound. So the dt 990 will probably be the best for what im looking for?

One more question, is the premium 990 worth the extra over the pro version?

The DT990 Pro 250 ohm are $185 on Amazon at the moment. So $150 to $200 more? Can't imagine it is worth that. Put the money towards an even better headphone amp.

denons dont need amps really...they have llow impedence.......in other words you dont need a huge amount of voltage goin into them from the source...ie. you dont need an amplification device...and in fact you could actually blow your phones out if you are using an amp trying to drive too much into the low bottleneck

If the amp doesn't clip or anything like that, the denons should be able to handle it. The d600 is spec'ed for 1800 mW.

I thought the he-400 was prized for it not needing to be amped.

It does need some form of amplification. Strictly it might not need something extraordinary, but since it is a fairly high-end 'phone it will benefit in sound quality. Amping isn't about volume, right?

There are no difference in performance, it is only looks and also clamping force. Personally I have never liked the dt-990. Too sibilant.

Well I got the dt990 qnd ill see how I like them and if I dont ill probably return/sell them. How many hours will be a good burn in time for these?
