105 AER

I usually use open-back headphones (Meze 105 AER) or nice floorstanding speakers with a good amp about 7 feet away. As you say, I think they have a better sense of space. Of course, open backs bleed a lot of sound and let a lot of sound in, so they're only suited for quiet environments. The same goe

The pad system of the 490 Pro is actually a strength, not a drawback! You basically get two tunings - one more linear/accurate one that’s better for mixing or gaming e.g. (fabric pads) and one more relaxed/musical and even bassy one with the velour pads. That actually makes the 490 Pro very versatil

Hang out on r/headphones or r/BudgetAudiophile and you'll find lots of us. It's amazing how spoiled we are nowadays for good sound. A Qobuz subscription (hi-res streaming), modest headphone amp/dac (like from Fiio) and some mid-fi cans like Meze 105 AERs or Hifiman Sundaras and you're in the top 5%

According to Google: The Meze 105 AER is an excellent, comfortable open-back headphone for immersive gaming, but only a good choice for competitive FPS (First-Person Shooters). They offer precise imaging and good spatial awareness, but their warm, bass-heavy signature might mask subtle footsteps dur

I have a pair of Meze Strada and 105 AERs that I use with my Gunnr. Yes, use the y cable, if you don’t it will short the audio out using just the TRRS. Now the AER are open back, but they sound awesome with the Gunnr. Not much different than my Stradas. I tend to use those on my Magni, Lokius, Mimir

Si quieres algo distinto, yo te recomiendo que pruebes el Meze 105 Aer. Es un auricular abierto, muy cómodo, con un gran bajo, con unos medios y agudos muy agradables y detallados. Necesitas unas 60 horas de uso para lograr su sonido. El Hd600 tiene menos bajos y menos escena sonora que el Hifiman.

Don't spend half your budget on a DAC. Get a better headphone. You should be able to get an open-box Meze 105 AER for around 300 euros. For around $200 you can get the Fiio FT1 Pro or the Hifiman Edition XS, and for $160 or so the Hifiman Sundara. Personally I'd go for the FT1 Pro and a $9 JCALLY do

Love my Arya Stealth and was a clear upgrade from HD 490 Pro. Actually at that time I went from HD 490 Pro to Meze 105 AER which was an upgrade to HD 490 Pro and then to Edition XV which was an upgrade to HD 490 Pro and Meze 105 AER. I finally settled for Arya Stealth (even tried HE1000 Stealth but

Forgot to reply this, sorry! I’ve got the Meze 105 AER. I was eyeing up their bigger brother, the 109 Pros (and also fantasising about HD800S) but neither are quite within my budget haha In any case, these are still the most expensive cans I own, and they’re fantastic. It’s been really fun listening
