Please don't, especially if it was hyped by Zeos of all people. That looks ridiculous and impractical while you could just buy a pair of dt770 for $110 right now on newegg: http://flash.newegg.com/Product/9SIA7NT4SU1790?icid=WP_0_09192016

Studio Monitor (1 month)

These are great all-in-one setup, but a bit bass-lite and can't upgrade the amp/dac.
Headphones
-fostex th900 (2 years)
Haven't use these in a while after getting the speakers since I don't really need the isolation any more. Still great, but hard to recommend when there's thx00.

Haven't use these in a long time as I just don't find it very comfortable compare to headphones/speakers and I rarely need the portability, but it still manages to surprise me of how good it is when I do use them.

Buying headphones worth more than the whole pc is worth it.

Why hd700 when hd600/650 are better and cheaper? Don't recommend it just because it's a bigger number...

Bone conducting been ready for years and great for running/biking since you can still hear your surroundings while listening to music and it stays on quite well. Sound quality though is pretty bad and no where near iem/headphones, it also doesn't isolate and the vibration is quite audible.

Yup, got the subpac for gaming/movie but it works pretty well for music too.

Both are equally bad, get the hyperx cloud.

Is the ebay search functionality not working for you or something. Sounds like you know what you need already.

What's funny? I do own a pair and would recommend it if budget is not a concern.

Neither, but if you want to upgrade can start by getting better headphones.

Sure, but I would spend all of it on headphone + mic without worrying about dac/amp just yet. Read through the recommended gear list to get an idea of what's available that fits your sound preference:

Well, the dt770 is on sale on newegg right now for $110 so I'd personally go for that and grab a mod mic for a pretty solid setup under 150 total.

Far from it, the best method I've tried is dolby Atmos on overwatch and that can be implemented by the devs. The best method hands down is the realiser a16 that can create personalized hrtf with head tracking.

Depends if you need the isolation, but typically speakers outperform headphones.

But...why? The op only need something portable and loud for street performance, spending 70 bucks to make the amp portable without speakers is such a waste. Just buy something simple like this op:

Don't buy/upgrade anything for 5 years. *Comes back to the present and find $10k in bank account, yum.

Focal elear, though I'm a bit biased.

I would go for the thx00 as suggested, there are plenty on eBay, /r/avexchange, headfi classified, etc.

Check out RHA MA-750, it beats the se215 overall with better clarity, faster and tighter bass. But se215 have detachable cables and better comfort/fit though, imo.

But... why? Replacing the bad laptop speakers with another bad laptop speakers is pointless. Should just get a pair of headphones or stereo speakers you can plug in when at home if you care about audio quality.
