It really depends on what you like/dislike about the he-560, and what you're looking for with the senns. It also depends on what your current gear is as well. IME, amps that work well with the he-560 (speaker amps) won't work well with the senns (OTL tube amps). Of course there are high end amps that handle both types well.

HD800 for listening to non-anime/doujin music. TBH, it's kind of a waste to get the hd800s if you mostly listen to that stuff like I do. That's why I sold my pair a while ago. Now if I had a nice EC amp to go with my yggy, that might be a different story xD.

HD650 is great for just about everything, when paired with a revealing amp and dac. Smooth throughout the whole FR, and a touch of extra bass for some fun factor. But at the same time, they are very resolving for when you want to listen to well recorded music.

After spending some time with the he-560s, modded and unmodded, I just couldn't take the treble with most of the music that I listened to.

Thanks for the breakout,tg100. I've had little issue with the treble on the HE-560, though there are some recordings that sometimes get a little edgy.

Right now I'm running the Gumby->Schiit Vali, but the Vali is a placeholder until the Liquid Carbon comes out. I tried my balanced HE-560 with the LC at CanJam and I didn't notice anything out of sorts. I'll probably go the road of getting the HD-650 first and see how that goes before deciding if I want to get an HD-800. I do listen to other genres outside what we're talking, so I think this direction of the 650 first is the correct path for me.

Cool! It might be a bit shocking going from the he-560 to the hd650s at first. The vali should do well til the carbon arrives.

Is your avatar Honoka from Love Live? I started watching the anime recently and I just finished ep 8. I'm actually really liking it so far! I actually got into Love Live because of these two doujin albums from Comiket 88 that were arrangements of Love Live themes.

The first album is "my FAVORITE μ's" and consists of acoustic guitar arrangements. I'm actually not sure what the policy here is when it concerns DL links for doujin music. Maybe TheGame or someone else can clarify.



Later on, I discovered "JazzLive!  -Love Live! Jazz cover-". You can buy this one from the doujin circle directly through Bandcamp (link in YT description).

Yes that is Honoka from Love Live. It may not show well, but she is wearing a little pirate hat, and is saluting. I've been on this show since the first anime. I'm not really a big idol show fan, but I've enjoyed following these folks. Great that you're enjoying it. It's hardly thought provoking at all, though you may come across some things as you keep watching.

I'm looking for a dynamic contrast with the HE560s. I'm pretty sure I'll get it with the HD650s and the HD800s.

Puella Magi? Does that mean "magical girl" or something similar? When that includes anime magic expect everything that is possible.

Yes it means Magical Girl. Basically Kyubey (My avatar) makes a contract with a girl, makes them a Puella Magi and then steals their souls. Kyybey is cute, but will steal your soul.

But you forgot the most important thing! They get to wish for whatever they want.
