Hey guys, noob here.
I currently use an Ipad 2 and my Macbook Pro with a Sennheiser HD280. Im quite happy with the headphones even though it has a lot of mixed opinions online. It was a lot better than my old $10 ear phones I used to use.
I just bought the Fiio E7 and listened to different types of music from Classical, Dubstep, Rock, House, and Rap. My problem is that I am not hearing any difference between using just the HD280 and the HD280 with the Fiio E7. The only thing I can see it doing is make the sound louder and when I boost the E7's volume up from 40-60 range. Other than that, I dont see the wow factor.
I've had my headphones for a little over a year now and just wanted to hear a little better. By that I wanted to get a little muffled sound but still hear all the equipment used in music separately. Maybe a 3d-like quality in hearing wise without upping the volume to hurt my ears. A private theatre sound like if I must describe it like that. I know this is asking way too much but I got to use the HD800 a couple of times along with a couple more $800+ head sets. I just wanted to experience something along those line. Sorry for the nutjob description of what Im asking for. Im not really savvy about this kind of thing. I know I could have gotten surround sound speakers for this but I stay up late and people around the house will just get mad at me when I play or watch movies that they could hear at 2am.
I was considering getting the HD650 to use at home only and the 280 when I go outside but a lot people led me to believe that that would be a waste. Instead I got the E7 first and probably get the HD650 later on. Did I make a mistake? Or do I have to "burn-in" the E7 for a couple more days?
Thanks.
