Hello all. I am new here and new to headphones. My present system consists of:
Teres Audio TT/Graham arm/Titan cartridge
Granite Audio CDP
Manley Steelhead Phono
Audio Research 3 pre
Audio Research VTM 200 mono blocks
Vandersteen 5A speakers
Headroom Max amp (older version)
Senn. 650 headphones
The Headroom Max and 650 headphones were purchased used a few weeks ago to see if I liked headphone listening. Turns out I do. Now, how to improve the experience? I have called around to my favorite audio stores to see if I could have a listen to different amps and headphones and found that Grado is about all any of them carry. So, I have come to the experts, you guys.
My question is, for $1400.00, what would be the bigger improvement. A Woo Audio amp over the Headroom? Or, the new 800 headphones over the 650.
