Had a quality issue with my first pair (DOA driver in one ear) but customer service was very responsive in getting me another pair.

These are great cans - have these hooked up to a Cambridge DACMagic 100, Schiit Jotunheim, and Schiit Lokius EQ. Even though it's probably the bare minimum power you need, the headphones sound great and can handle a ton of volume without distortion. Thought it wasn't going to be that big of an upgrade from my Sennheiser HD650s but they are far superior.

Don't buy these without a strong enough amp.
These are wired only and designed to be used with an amp real audiophile equipment kinda stuff

Once again an iconian post sucks some money out of the bank account (yes, in this situation I have no personal accountability). Anyway, I have a set on the way... but curious... are you using a Jot 1 or Jot 2? I have seen several people say these are great on Jot 2, but I have Jot 1 and I haven't found anyone with this pairing talk about it yet. According to Schiit Jot 1 and Jot 2 are basically 2 completely different amps, in mostly the same chassis.

Imagine spending $600 on headphones and being on slickdeals... If you have that kind of cash to blow on ear speakers you don't need to be here...

I use all the money I save on toilet paper and garbage bags to buy headphones, they are basically free...

Also note, these are entry level, both in price and model.

Literally every post has one of these replies, not sure if you guys are just baiting.
Imagine paying money for hobbies?

If you are not an audiophile you don't have the equipment to drive this, its not a product for regular consumers who view headphones as "eAr sPEakErs".
And yes, a discount of over $1k is considered a very good deal, these were reselling for more than $800 used last year.

I just picked up the Drop THX AAA 789 amplifier. Will this amp be a good match for these headphones?
