Curious what your opinions on planar headphones are? Budget ones under like under around $300?

Would use for stuff like watching TV shows, movies, and music etc.

Just thinking about some planar vs senhess hd 600 whatever series, or q701 or similar model.

cause saw the monoprice 1060 are on sale.

Monoprice monolith 1060


Or 1060c

Get them



What amp do you have?

no amp yet. im still just thinking about it. just to see which is better or why? i guess planar have a more neutral sound? i know different technology and stuff, but curious like why you would get one over the other kind?

They're supposed to be budget Lcd-2's

And i fucking love my lcd-2


I havent personally tried them, But i've always wanted to.

shit, those are $1000. i read somewhere that legit planar headphones are at least several hundred bucks. and these from monoprice are very beginning line up cause so cheap.
what sort of amp would you suggest for them? cheaper probably better

Planar are pretty power hungry

around how much should i expect to spend on an amplifier for them?
around 100 bucks?

100 to 200


I still have my asgard 2 laying around that i need to get rid of 🤔

This amp has powered my q701s fine for the past 6 or 7 years.

I wish the power and headphone jack was in the back. That has always bugged me.
