I'm seriously thinking about Meze 99 Classic.

Build quality seems good.

They are serviceable to the last screw.

You can buy replacment drivers, earpads, headband.

Those look really nice, but closed back headphones have a shitty soundstage usually.
But i've read they have a silky smooth sounds signature which makes me really curious about them.

I'm looking into that but for now an X5 soundblaster amp. Still a major difference in sound from 660S

I would look into a DAC/AMP combo for driving your headphones, doesn't need to be anything fancy 200-400 dollars should be enough. Schiit Audio is good.

Actually upgrading your headphone gives you the biggest difference in sound. DAC's usually differ very slightly from each other just like amps and cables (if any) but headphones (and speakers), oh man audio nirvana.

I really do love how the Etymotic ER4XR with a 4db low shelf & tweaks to mids/treble, Uses a Single BA config yet blows away every past headphone I've used. The Fiio K12 Is fantastic for the price.

As for lossy codecs I'm blown away how 128kbps Opus It basically Transparent beyond 3 songs that need 384kbps.
