portable amps are portable. of course we would only recommend u portable ones. and they greatly improve headphones that are recommended on this page.

DVD Rey, many people say even tough they are 32 ohms, they need an amp. Are you sure?

 

Require necessarily an amp, no, they sound good with a computer, but they aren't very efficient headphone with just a 96dB. You can have much better with a good amp.

Hum xb1000 has nothing audiophile imo, the new entry into the audiophile realm from Sony is, imo, the Z1000.

The E6 is good and should be bought as it has a few good upgrades.

i was in a hurry to type and finish but yeah. i only called the V6 as the last audiophile headphone they made. The XB1000's were their attempts at entering is what i meant. a good increase in quality but still a bit..meh
