Begginer....!!

sorry for the mess...despite i ve already make a post i just find out how to make a new thread....!

i copy here what i ve wrote hoping to be visible to more people and opinions and "ears"..!

"Hi all!!!

My name is Nektarios and i m from Greece!I m new here and forgive me for my mistakes and i hope that it s not wrong that i m writting here...

I need some help,and if u could give me some advices about a "muching" i m thinking to do!!

I have to say i dont have any "hearing" experience on "hi-end" or on good sound!

To buy a very expensive "hi-end" system so to hear my music with quality and generally good sound,is somthing that i can t do for economical reasons and  that i have a 19 months old baby girl,which mean many hours of quiet,a few hours of personal time and space but many hags and kisses...lol

so i decided to a more "personal situation".Headphones!!!

i intend to buy the akg k550 and much it with the philips muse sa3mus16s audio player.(wav,flac format, not mp3s any more..)

i hear a little bit of all kind of music.Mostly i hear jazz music,concerts with tenors,classical,greek music of course,"atmosphere" music and rnb "slow"....

i m looking for a good bass but not to  have a headache from a phat boom neither a high frequences wich they will pass through like niddle in my ears!(tss.tss)

i have made an opinion for the akg k 550 only from these that i have read (audio greek magazines,rewies in internet and here in head-fi.org) and as for the source of sound i know that u might think it strange not to have a better system with amplifier for headphones and e.c.t so to drive the k550, but i dont have the space to have them and  i would like to have the opportunity to take them eveywhere i want and hear my music!(living room,bedroom)

 thanks a lot my guys and forgive if i tired u!

 keep on the good work here,we "need" u to become better and hear better!!"

i forgote to wrote that here in greece i dont have the opportunity to hear them in a shop,even the official representative isn t able to let me hear them!

i use to hear music so far from my laptop or my nokia n8.i have in ear type of earphones which are too uncomfortable for my ears (n8's earphones) and a little bit more "bassy" type i could say.

thanks again and forgive my bad english!!

thanks for the response hodgjy and the warm welcome!

I have to say i m not use to hear music very loud in case u mean that as for the "power" point but if u mean about the good driving of k550s,to be honest i was influenced from a rewie of a magazine which test the k550s and they said that are able to be driven from an ipod too and their 32ohms and 114dbs i thought that with a mp4 like muse i ll be able to have a very good sound in low "volume".

i check the link that u send but if u talking for a player like hifiman hm 801.. i cant afford it!

as for a headphone amplifier i d like to avoid it.

sorry for being so negative on having an extra amplifier for headphones.i m sure that with an amp ,k550 will work better,is just that i m trying(hoping) to give as less money i can so to reach a good sound!i don t mind as i said before to hear loud as i want to hear a good resolution and quality of the sound from the music that i m listening.

i found out that the audio player philips muse has 2x2,5mw output on earphones and k550s have 200mwmax power!

with this clue r u suggesting me to forget that "muching"?(philips go gear muse+akg k550) and try to find another sound source so to drive akgs?

thanks again!

hmm...i c what u mean...by "proper power", akgs will "give " what  they are really able to give...

To be honest,these little cute boxes...i start liking them...lol but not for now.

thanks once again!!!

i m a little worry about 2x2,5mw of mp4,if they are able to make k550s start "moving" and take at least a good enough sounding and pleasant "hearing"....
