best $700 headphone image

I have a pair of Sony xb-700 headphones and I just got a fiio E7 from amazon. I will be using my iPhone and my laptop. Is that a combo?
Answer
combo? not sure what you mean. Is that a good combo? maybe thats what you meant. yes its a good combo. The e7 had a DAC in it so you wont be using the DAC in your iphone or computer whatever your using. Apple and your computer company don't really worry about throwing a good DAC into their system, because most people don't care what the thing sounds like, so they save money, and it isnt priority.
So it should go iphone/laptop >>>> LOD cable(out of iphone)/ usb cable out of computer >>>>e7 >>>>>sony xb 700
You need an LOD cable out of the iphone, or you will still be using the DAC in the iphone and not the fiio e 7. USB out of the computer to the e7 you will be using the e7 DAC
You will always be using the amp on the e7, so you can play around with it . Listen to your headphones straight out of the iphone, then hook up the e7 and listen to the differences.
make sure your audio files are atleast someone good, if your buying from itunes your good.
If your looking to upgrade in the future.... out of your phone/E7/sony xb 700, i would upgrade the xb 700.
sony xb 700 are great headphones, but they are the weakest part of your audio chain in my opinion , so that is food for thought in the future. I wouldn't buy another headphone though unless your willing to drop $200+, anything else wouldn't matter much cause the xb700 are good for their price point.
Have fun!
oh and to answer your question, it should sound awesome.

Which kind of Sennheiser headphones should I get?
Pink722
I'm getting ready to switch from Skullcandy to Sennheiser because I'm sick of having to buy new headphones every 3 months and I heard Sennheiser is a great company, but I'm not sure which model I should get. I like headphones that are well balanced (Clear highs, mids etc.), but also can handle a lot of bass. I'm looking to only spend up to about $50, if possible.
Recommendations on which model of their earbuds are good would also be greatly appreciated :)
Answer
Sennheiser HD 700 1000$ or Sennheiser HD205 40 -50$
Sennheiser HD 700 1000$ or Sennheiser HD205 40 -50$
