Well, this is more of a general question...
How do mid/high impedance(250'ish) headphones sound unamplified(run off of a pc)?
I'm upgrading from px100's, so these would be my first nice set of headphones.
Obviously, I don't own a headphone amp, and I'm already queasy thinking about spending even $200 for a pair of dt880's or k601's. More money for an amp would be out of the question.
I will probably end up spending another $50-100 on a amp the next time I have some left-over spending money, but I think it'll still be a hassle carrying an amp around with my zune all the time.
Am I better off spending $100 less on something like an akg270s, or denon d1000's?
