Didn't plan on getting headphones. But $119 for the HD 58x is crazy to skip. (alien.top)

After a really long hiatus from headphones, I couldn't resist getting the 58x. I used to have the HD 800S and the DT1770 but sold it 4 years ago.

My taste have shifted to warmer and mellower signature. So this was perfect. It also has sub bass unlike the 6xx.

I wanted to go back to the hobby years ago, but it got pushed back due to other priorities. Now I'm back to the rabbit hole i guess lol.

Anyway, i'm thinking of running these with the new JDS amp or maybe a tube amp (suggestions are welcome).

JDS will work it is just a bit clinical. Monoprice Liquid Spark pairs best with it as well as IFi Zen Air Can. Forget tube amps I’ve tested them with this pair and it isn’t good unless the volume is kept loud (they reveal too much vacuum noise). The 58’s are exceptional and a steal at that price.
