Hi folks, I haven't been very active for a couple of years. I figured out that I was actually very happy with my rig (and I still am). During COVID-19 pandemics I started to play electric guitar, probably an effect of my 40 y/o life crisis Long story made short: I have a guitar amp that can be used with headphones. For some reason, my low impedance headphones (Denon D2000 and my Phillips SHL-5905, modified by Frans) just not match the amp output stage well, because I am getting a totally smoothed and overblown sound (no tube distorsion dynamics, too much upper bass / low mids). I just gave a go to my HD800 and they sound great though this guitar amp. Apparently the amp manufacturer recommends headphone impedance aroud ~70-80 Ohm. I would like to buy a headphone set to practice guitar with impedance in that ballpark (a bit higher is totally fine). I would prefer a set with a relatively flat response curve, or at least without too much coloration. I don't want to break the bank either I would apprecite it the most if you guys could recommend me a few models?

Or buy a cheap amp with great specs that can drive all headphones with ease.
Topping L30, JDS Labs Atom, Schiit Magni Heresy.
All around $ 100.-
