Thanks for the answer guys.
The Objective2, you mean? It's just a headphone amp that's been getting a lot of attention lately.
JDS Labs sells fully-assembled ones, but I don't know if they ship outside the US.
Prior to that, the go-to recommendation for a desktop amp was usually the FiiO E9. I'm not sure if that's still the case.
Any chance you could add your location to your community profile?
Possible places that might stock the O2
Sometimes they are for sale on eBay and sometimes in the Head-fi thread "Amplifiers for Sale"

I couldn't last time you asked, but now it's done
Thanks! looks like Epiphany Acoustics will be cheaper/easier for me.
So, I guess I'll buy the DT770 80ohm + X-Fi Titanium, and then see if I really need an amp or not.
The question is thus: How will I know if I really need the amp? Does it only affects the maximum volume, or does it also affects sound quality at the same volume?
Sorry for the silly question, but I'm still a newbie and keep reading contradictory information everywhere ^^'

Just don't get the O2 and the ODAC confused. This link Epiphany Acoustics (UK) is for the ODAC, not the O2 amp.
Ok, ok. One more question! Since I am on a budget ($150 MAX, and that's pushing it), should I go with the AD700 or the Creative Aruvana live. I'm mainly going to use the headphones for gaming and listening to music (many different genres). These will be hooked up to my X-fi titanium. Thanks again.
So boiled it down to 2 choices. Ether the FiiO E11 or mixamp pro(which I can only get though ebay right now),
Which of the 2 you thinks worth getting for console use?

I don't understand the question. Do you need virtual surround and chat, or do you just want to play games in stereo?

Easiest way to decide is: do you plan to use the headphones on the go? At all? If you need any isolation at all, that rules out the AD70If
