Looking for a solid headphone to run with a Fiio K5 or K7 this Black Friday. I’ve never experienced Hifi before.

Here’s what I need:

-Instrument separation and high resolution -Good Imaging for occasional FPS -Extremely deep bass extension for car and flight simulators (I absolutely love the low roar of vehicle engines). I’m talking single digit Hz lol -Below 500

1990 had the sharpest imaging I've ever heard. The center image is so sharp and definite. The treble is pronounced but never bothered me ymmv. Separation and resolving ability were good, no veil at all. To me the bass was quite strong, but honestly none of the headphones you're looking at will have super thick bass without EQ.

I have the 660S and the 1990, the 660S is way sharper in treble.
