Well I like these dt880s not sure what the signature or w.e is though since this is the first time i’m really getting into audio stuff.

Haha you’re in for fun man. I mean you certainly can get another set but not necessary. The Asgard should more than outperform the xduoo in both quality in power. But you may as well explore different headphones if you got the funds and the curiosity.

Hmmm, lots of options lol. What do you like about the 880, and what would you want to change? Would you be looking for something to do along with the 880 or serve the same purpose as the 880?

Yeah it comes down to what music you like I think. Most will have a signature they prefer but it’s also good to have a few signatures for different situations or genres. Or even just ones for the living room bedroom, office, bathroom lol (don’t actually have a bathroom pair, they tend to sound shitty overtime :joy:)

Lol you could try to mod a amplifier into a cabinet or back of the toilet. And you already have a headphone hanger (toilet paper roller)

Well right now I like the detail of it. Like I can hear clearer and further not entirely sure if that’s because of the open back nature of the cans. Anything like it would be fine.

I heard the sound signature is liquid, lol

Depends on what you eat beforehand

You may want to try a planar for fun if you want to try a different type of driver. Like M0N said it’ll take advantage of the power of the Asgard. The Ananda if you wanna jump into the mid tier section right off the bat

Sorry I meant sundara lol. The Ananda is too steep a jump up lol.

Sundara might be a good upgrade to the 880 imo. Ananda is different but a further jump indeed
