I know these aren't anything crazy, but they're my first pair of "real" headphones. I love them to death, the sound is very neutral and lends itself well to any genre. I also swapped the old deteriorated earcups for velour ones and they're now the most comfortable headphones I've tried.

I've never owned a headphone amp so if anyone has a recommendation for a good entry level amp, let me know!

Fiio K5? Topping Dx3 Pro?

Do these count as entry level? At any rate they should serve you well for a long time.

Why is this downvoted??

Because Schiit doesn't have headphone protection in their amps and it has resulted in Redditors getting their headphones destroyed.
