I would like to be able to run some measurements of your system. I assume that amp is actually an amp and not just a passive volume pot? how do you decide what output volume to set your computer? two gain stages might not be so good brah.

>> No.52278459

>>52278388
k240 is considerably cheaper, and it is a semi open pair of cans iirc. I'd assume they have very different sound signatures too. Try them both out in store and determine which is better suited for you, if possible.

If you're referring to a hard case, then I'm afraid we misunderstood each other anon. I only have the soft leather case the headphones come with, but I dont use them anyway. These headphones are honestly so fucking durable and user friendly, I keep them folded up inside mmy backpack most of the day (not crushed between the shit inside the bag,they just rest comfortably on top of the shit inside the backpack). IMO, you most likely don't need them anon, unless your workplace or something requires them to. In comparison to the shitty Beats Solo "HD"s I owned like 2 years back these are god tier.

Discussing headphones in /mu/ is not very practical IMO but whatever. I got AKG K271 MKIIs coming on the mail next week.
