[@RNeeko]

@@stanisawszczypua9076 The FiiO K5 really isn't powerful enough to bring these to their full potential. You can get them pretty loud with most amps. My JDS Labs Atom can get them plenty loud. They just don't sound as good they do on my Emotiva BasX A-100. On the Atom they sound a bit dry and tinny. On the A-100 they sound full and powerful. The difference is immediately audible. Zeos did not exaggerate just how much juice these need to really sound good.

Can you do a video for like best closed and open back headphones under each budget, like do a top 3 and which ones you'll recommend under each budget like $50,$100,$150,$200 and so on, i think this will be more detailed.

[@fran2911]

You can't really get much for 50 bucks, some praise the porta pros but I don't see why anyone would use them. It really depends what signature you like for $100 you could get some hd518 or hd559 if you prefer a little more base. $200 territory should be discounted or used 6xx, Breyerdynamic 770 80ohm or 250ohm if you have something like a fiio e10k (may still be a little weak) or a amp + dac combo from schiit.

Dang. So many headphones! I’d gladly pay $100 or so just to listen to each one for a few minutes! My kph30i’s and Vever pads came in today. These have more bass than they should, even as stock! Deeper than my Senn hd6xx, though not as tight, and with just a *little* bass distortion. But for $30 total, I’ve done (and could still do) at lot worse and probably not any better! Sibilance can be a bit painful though. Overall, an interesting purchase. Funny thing is, I got these to tie me over until the Meze 99 Noirs became available again.....they just became available again. *sigh* Off to Drop to drop another $200 from my “stimulus” check!

I like you leaning 100% into loving the Zeus! I think you need to do that more. You're generally enthusiastic and happy to review a lot of gear, so it sometimes becomes hard to differentiate "I love this" from " I reeeeally like that" and "this sounds fucking good" from "that is phenomenally good". Don't worry about coming across as a shill, we all know you aren't at this point. If something is that good, make it abundantly clear. Love ya, Z

Through the years I have learned what it means to be on Z wall. In most part all products need to be a minimum of "B" quality. Many items shine in certain areas giving them an "A" value but may lose marks for quality, comfort, and build. He did have some keepers early on in his career but was in the early 2012's for headphones but keepers weren't in existence yet.

I have a magni heresy/modi schiit stack, a liquid spark amp, and a mx3 topping amp. I love em all. The beautiful thing about audio in 2021 is you don’t have to spend a lot to get amazing sound.
