Thanks for all your input, people. I happened to look on gumtree today and found a secondhand pair of HD800S being sold locally. So I stretched my budget a bit and picked them up. Very happy.

Thank you. I'll head to addicted to audio and try some of these models out.

That's great, thank you! It doesn't have to be dynamic. Just thought since the Argons are planar I should try something else. I hadn't thought of electrostatics. I didn't realise you could get in to them at that price point.

I am looking for a second pair of headphones to complement and offer something different to Argon Mk3s. So I was thinking of a pair of dynamic and open-backed headphones. Something good for classical music and comfortable. The Massdrop Focal Elex are pretty well reviewed but I would prefer to get something local I could listen to first. Any suggestions appreciated.

Okay. This is gone to Matcat pending pickup

I stopped using it because it developed an issue where a left or right speaker channel would occasionally drop out. Flicking between different inputs would eventually bring it back. I took it to the shop I bought it from to get checked but they couldn't reproduce the issue. Looking online, it appears this is not an unheard of problem with these amps. I have the remote and power cable. I don't have a box for it so it is pickup only unless you want to organise something. Located in Adelaide, 5069.
