I am currently conducing research on a headphone rig I plan on purchasing in the future. So far, I am looking to purchase either DT 48E or DT250 headphones. My goal is to acquire a rig (by rig I mean setup. I am not down with the lingo around here
) that has a flat frequency response. Hence, I am looking at the DT 48s. I am also looking into amps (preferably portable) and a possible DAC (again, something else that I am ignorant about in regards to audio). Also, I am looking to purchase a digital audio player that has a flat frequency response (or at least as close to it as possible). I participated in one thread (http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/490558/the-perfect-digital-audio-player/30#post_6867501) about digital audio players and my initial understanding was that the Clip+ can achieve a flat frequency response if I am to Rockbox it. However, someone then wrote that the Clip+ is great for it's price but that the sound quality was not top-notch and that there are better DAPs out there.
I have a few concerns/questions. First being that I don't understand how it is that I would use Rockbox to achieve a flat frequency response. Would this be by using pink noise and sine waves (I believe those are the proper terms and even there I don't quite understand what they are. I am a n00b after all) accompanied with an equalizer? Secondly, is there another avenue that I shall pursue in regards to a flat frequency response rig? Do my fellow head-fiers have information that could assist me in doing so? If you do please offer your information! I have learned a lot since I registered to be a part of this forum and I really enjoy being a part of the head-fi community. Thanks for taking the time to view my thread and thanks in advance for any responses!
