Headphones that sound like a HiFi?

Absolutely agree with this. My studio combo is Yamaha HS5 Monitors and Sony MDR-7506 monitor headphones. This combo is really unbiased and when I switch between them, the difference is small. If you mix using a particular HiFi then it will only sound great in that HiFi. every HiFi manufacturer build

O que usar para tocar com pedaleira?

IR’s reproduzem o timbre de gabinetes (caixas específicas, alto falantes específicos, cujos sons são capturados por microfones específicos). Imagina você plugar a guitarra em um cabeçote Orange (pre amp e power amp), ligar esse cabeçote em um gabinete com dois alto falantes de 12” Orange, depois mic

Why do people say Yamaha HS5 (or the entire HS series) is uncomfortable to listen to?

Yes. But the HS5 does have a boost around 1khz. Which compared to a speaker (or headphone) which has a more neutral mid-range response could make them seem a bit shouty.

New guitar, who dis Amp?

You want a FRFR speaker (for example, HeadRush, Valeton) or a powered studio monitor (for example, Yamaha HS5). Your GP-200 already acts as a preamp/amp.

Speakers for my DDJ-FLX4

Dúvida sobre eficácia sonora.

Cara, você tá com verba pra pegar caixas excelentes, de verdade, como a Edifier R2850DB ou uma Gradiente Master 100, se achar alguma boa, podendo inclusive tentar pegar uma Yamaha HS5 por exemplo. O importante é ser um par, para você ter o stereo mesmo.
