I'm gonna be straight up with you, get a Koss Porta Pro, Koss KPH30is, or the Monoprice Modern Retros and change the stock pads for Brainwavz XL pads. I bought 8 expensive headphones that get beat out by these three. The only headphones that I own that flat out beat them are my Monolith M1060s, maybe my Sennheiser HD6XXs, maybe my Meze 99 Noirs, and maybe my 1more triple drivers. I would get those cheap ones I mentioned first and then see if you want more. I have a Toppings MX3 DAC/AMP that I use for my speakers, Audio Technica turntable and sometimes headphones. I use a Creative Soundblaster G6 as my headphone DAC/AMP at the moment. I have the Drop THX AAA 789 headphone amp ordered but hasn't arrived yet which I will pair with my Toppings E30 DAC. The Creative Soundblaster G6 with my Monolith M1060 is what I mostly use for music pleasure at the moment. I am also in the middle of modifying a stock pair of Fostex T50RP mk2s. I'm about $250 deep into these headphones and the first three headphones I mentioned flat out sound more pleasing to me. The Fostex have muddy bass which is a real let down. If I was to look for my next headphone purchase for musical enjoyment, I think I'm gonna be going for the Hifiman Sundaras or the Monolith M1570s. My next Bluetooth upgrade will either be the Audiotechnica ATH-M50XBT or just straight to the Drop + THX Pandas. Hope this helps in some way.

tcurtis6984Thanks for all the advice. I had no idea you could get good sound at such a low price! I always thought it required hundreds of dollars to even get into. I like the soundblasterx g6 you sent but man those headphones look like something i used in the third grade computer lab. But if its really that good ill get a couple different ones and see where to go from there.
