# Headphone - HD800? Not gonna be quite able to tell the difference? - HD600/HD660/HD650 - proper price range. HD660s is easier to drive without a tier-1 preamp. - DT 770/880/990 Pro from Beyer Dynamics - Philips SHP 9500/9600, X2HR, X3 - HiFiMan Sundara -- wonderful resolution, tight and punchy bass. - ==DT1990 Pro== - Very detailed - Vocal more intimate compared to HD600 series and T1 - Better bass than T1 - Sturdy build, but maybe too much clamp force - Beyerdynamic T1 - Open back - Very detailed - Bass response not enough - Awesome soundstage - A good cheaper alternative for HD800 - More airy than DT1990 - Beyerdynamic T5 - Close back ## AKG - K712 Pro - Wonderful for gaming - Big soundstage, nice separation - Smooth and silky - Not quite a sturdy build - [Joshua Valour - AKG K712 Pro Review ($400 Power Hungry Slovakian Soundstage Monsters)](https://youtu.be/1uWN-DLD-ok) - K701
