This is what I mean about the spike: http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=7&graphID[]=573&scale=30 (link is bugged copy last bit) Unless I'm reading this graph wrong I gonna need a amp that can drive headphones upto 600ohms to be safe.Thank you.
Xen: I have a 560 + Ember + Uberfrost setup, although I tend to use it for music, less for gaming. What kind of games do you play? I could run a few similar ones on my setup, if that'll help you have a better idea of what to expect. (Oh and my 560 uses stock cables)
To everyone else: how hifi is the music you listen to? I'm re-evaluating my setup in light of the fact that I'm content with 16/44.1, and may just want to stay with a HD600. Is upgrading my DAC or amp pointless?
Ok I tried out Witcher and Borderlands 2 (but new games, because I don't/haven't touched either for a while). Separation is really good, so individual sfx and instruments on bgm are easy to make out. I'm not sure about space and directionality--seems decent, but I'm quite crap at hearing this sort of thing.Bass is great. Explosions, low hum, etc. are all well represented.
