For that money HD 58X Jubilee, without question the best bang for buck.Any recommendation on headphones for this unit? Something under 150$ US?

not sure if it’s wise to spend only USD 150 on headphones when you’re paying something like USD 160-220 for the DX3, lol
if you ask me you shouldn’t spend more on source gear than transducers
That is plenty enough to spend, a lot of people will put hd58x's in the same ballpark as hd660S (some suggest it is the same driver used and in the 700's), people even report preferring the jubilees. Honestly I would get them while massdrop still do them, they are an absolute bargain and sound fantastic on this unit, I have headphones at 4x the price that I'm currently selling as these are just so good.How much should I be spending?

won’t deny that 58X is good for the price but as of now I can’t think of a headphone other than that at that price range that would need the DX3 or something
also while I never used Massdrop myself (doesn’t ship to where I am and I can’t be bothered to hire a proxy), to my knowledge it’s also not available all the time so that’s something to take note if he wants to buy them
What headphones do you like?

You have the same experience as me.Can someone explain to me about the headphone jack in DX3pro. I tried to use headphones for the first time to test the unit, cheap sony.
I can hear right channel when inserted all the way. I can hear both channels if inserted just in certain way.
Those headphones work with my other 3.5mm dac/amp no problem. The jack has two stripes. What's going on?
I feel bad now haha, I bought Philips Fidelio X2HR for 170, but there was nothing better than DX3 Pro in this price range that I wanted to pair it with.not sure if it’s wise to spend only USD 150 on headphones when you’re paying something like USD 160-220 for the DX3, lol

At least I got the DX3 for less than the headphones
Pray tell, where do you live? Massdrop ships to a lot of places.
Singapore, from what I read Massdrop isn’t allowed to ship to Asian countries or something like that due to some agreement with its distributor or something
Depends on specific product. Some products, they don't ship to certain countries. Others they do.
Best is to check on each specific item at payment.
you might be right, haven't checked all the products... yet
but what I do know is that both the HD 6XX and HD 58X Jubilee both don't ship to my country directly, which sucks.

Wouldn’t really know myself, never had the pleasure to ever try them out myself for reasons already statedIs the massdrop HD 6XX worth the extra $50 over HD 58X Jubilee?
Wouldn’t really know myself, never had the pleasure to ever try them out myself for reasons already stated
But based on what I’m reading though the 6XX is supposed to be a 650 with a different paint job, not sure about the 58X
Measurements for both seem to be quite good though, so my statement for the 58X being quite good should hold
