there really arent many semi opens in the market so it makes things hard
Also true, I was think the fostex t60rp perhaps but no swivel. The x00 ebony would also be nice
Swivel is the word i was looking for. thanks. is it safe to say that there isn’t an option with these requirements? i struggle with the lack of rotation the beyerdynamics have thus not forming to my head.
maybe a pad change could benefit you? maybe an angled pad?
now that’s a good point. wonder if anyone has experience with pad swapping and beyerdynamics.
t60rp over the argons? and is drop bringing back the x00? also, what’s the typical price of the x00?
those are all the pad rolling stuff people did with the `1990
Yes imo because it’s actually readily available compared to the argons. Drop most likely is not bringing back the x00 it was discontinued. You would be looking around perhaps 350-500
thanks so much! i’ll read those
t60rp or x00? if x00, any recommended sites?
That’s the website I was using too lol. It’s great.
Do you have a powerful amp for the T60rp? They are notoriously hard to drive properly.
that i do. thanks!
Cool. What is it?
there’s a mahogony available. any difference? or should i just consider the t60rp?
currently just a SB G6 but thanks M0N i’ll shortly be purchasing a Geshelli stack.
Technically, Sony MDR-Z7’s are semi open. 
Oh… that’s actually not going to really be powerful enough to power them properly. They will run, but they won’t sound right or anywhere near the way they are supposed to.
@M0N usually recommends the Schiit Asgard 3 amplifier with a good DAC too like you are getting for them.
Or, another option that is portable and nice and small is the Xduoo XD-05 Plus, it is an AMP/ DAC combo with massive power.
the archel2.5 wouldn’t power those properly?? i like the concept of the asgard but i’m after optical.
the xd-05 plus was towards the top of my list but i fear the lifespan of the battery, as it goes for all portables of course.
