Which currently available drop headphones has the most bass?
I currently own the Sennheiser 6xx and a Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro. The 6xx is definitely lacking in bass, but the 770 isn't too bad. I still want more though.
Can anyone recommend a pair of basshead headphones? and is it possible to get what I want for under $300, or am I gonna have to shell out closer to a grand? I hear planar magnetics are supposed to be pretty amazing, but I've yet to try any. Drop seems to have several planar headphones currently, and I'm wondering if any of these might be what I'm looking for?
If you don't think I'll find what I'm looking for on this site, I'm open to suggestions for whatever.

If youve got a decent amp already, I recommend something like the Fostex T20RP. They need a pad swap and a comfort strap, but even if you went premium on both, the total cost shouldn't be much more than like $230ish. If you don't have a decent amp tho, they might slack a bit.

If you want to listen to the headphones without using an equalizer, there are a few headphones that have a touch more bass, but I find myself using the bass boost on my dac or a dac with an eq most often.
The Meze 99 headphones sound great and are particularly warm, as are the emu purple hearts .
You could always go pretty intense and get a pair of skullcandy crushers as well. The Crusher evo actually has a decent sound and if that ain't enough bass for ya... lol.

How do I initiate a return?
Sent a support request, and have not heard back from them. My headset did not fit well at all, and is within the 30-day return policy. I suppose if I hear nothing in the next week I would have to charge back through my card company right?

Multiple balanced output DAC?
Just going to throw this out there... Does anyone know of any good DACs with more than one pair of balanced outputs? I have an audio interface that does the job, but I've been curious if anyone manufactures DACs that I could run my monitors and my amp off of simultaneously without having to put some sort of splitter in the signal path.

When can I expect my item?
I placed my first order with Drop. I ordered Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee Headphones over a month ago. My order simply states estimated ship date Jan 29, 2021. I've tried to contact support 3 times to confirm the date with no response. Does anyone know how accurate this date is?

No sound from AMP / DAC
Just got my first AMP and DAC setup for my new Senheiser HD600's.
I set it up and turned it on and got no sound to come from it. I tried setting it to default and poking at the settings in the Sound Control panel to get it to work but I still got nothing! I do hear a small amount of static when plugging in my headphones to the amp but it is faint.
Is it not set up correctly?

Reserved for Shipment Even Though in Stock
The 6xx refurb b-stock was in stock and I bought them. They were to be shipped on the 20th and it's almost the 23rd. What is taking them so long to shop for something in stock?

dt990 Pro 250ohms DAC/Amp upgrade
Currently running them through the headphone jack on a Scarlet 2i2 (1st Gen) audio interface and wondering if upgrading to a FiiO K5 would make a noticeable differenced in audio quality in your opinion?.
Open to other all in one DAC/Amp options around that price point with line outs for monitors.
Thanks!
