I've read that Sennheiser headphones (especially the HD600 / HD650) match the sound signature of GS amps very well (someone told me the amp gives the Senns a kick up the backside!)
I'm thinking of getting a pair of Beyerdynamic DT880s. Does anyone have any experience with how this would (or would not) compliment a GS amp?
Thanks

I can tell you that the 2003 Beyer DT880 (250 ohm) pairs very well w/ the Beta Novo. There is great detail, clarity, depth, and most importantly it is involving. The Beyer DT880 is IMO a very nice sounding can, better than either the Senn HD580/600/650 and w/ the Beta Novo it is even fun to listen too.
FYI, I listen mostly to Jazz and at very low levels. ------------- Miguel |
