Hey I'm looking to make my first substantial purchase of audio equipment and am looking for some advice. My budget is around 500$ for headphones and possibly an amp.
I currently own a pair of SteelSeries Siberia 51016 which I enjoy more than my coworkers' Sennheiser HD5x5s both of which sounded airy and distant sounding to me. Another coworker is bringing in his HD600 tomorrow so I'll try them out then. I'm be alternately driving them from my Linux box a work, windows box /w a sound card at home and my netbook when the when I'm back in school next semester.
I mostly listen to hip-hop, rock, and rap so bass is important to me.
