Looking for a great amp for my HD25-1... please help this clueless guy

[adkimemory]

I'm thinking about getting an HD25-1, but looking for something to amp it. I don't know anyhting about amps. i was wondering, what great amp should I get that would considerably improve my SQ?? I would mainly use it for out of my house (mainly in the library or such), so I guess I would need a mobile amp?

and what would be the economic choice if i had a price limit of $150??

and what would you choose?


also, i'm thinking of getting a HD580 exclusively for home use sometime in the near future for home. What kind of amp should I get for that??
I'm sorry for all the vague questions, but I have absolutely no idea what I'm looking for~~~

Skylab used his modded HD25-1 for these, arguably the best portable reviews around.

We can't do all the work for you. Many newbies come in, throw out a price and expect the board to do all the work. Skylab's review is excellent! Go educate yourself so you won't be an "inexperienced person". Then you will have the background to ask questions specific to your situation, your sonic preferences, size limitations, desired options, etc. As a result, you will find the replys you get much more useful. Is my thinking so off?

I mean by all means come back with a more precise questions and we'll all help get you exactly what you want.
