Advice Needed deciding new Phones


My budget is $750 new or used.  I plan on using my T&A Dac 200 which has a .4.4 mm Balanced Pentacon jack.   I have an old pair of Sony MDR V6 that I am re-foaming now and purchased a converter plug for them.

I need help to get the right cable setup to take advantage of the balanced jack and need a extension cable to reach my listening chair a total of 8’ or so.  I prefer the “live” sound my current setup gives.  Presently I have Spectron mono blocks, B&W i 802D speakers and the Dac 200.  Sources are Roon and VPI Classic turntable.

I am not sure how much I would like the phones so I want to keep my $$$ about $750 or so.  Thanks!

My Dac 200 offers no specs on the headphone aspect other that the jack is a 4.4 mm Balanced Pentacon.   Thanks for all of the great suggestions.  I re foamed the Sony’s so I will have a point of comparison to the others.
