Greetings all.
I'm in the market for some cans. I'm looking at a number of them including HD595s and AKG K701s. I mostly listen to jazz.
I don't currently have an amp - or even a good source. I have a zune that I use with (unamped, unfortunately) re0s.
I'm quite challenged in that I don't know anyone with good headphones - specifically ones geared towards jazz.
Does anyone know of stores in toronto (or better yet, london ontario, where I am now) that would have good sets of cans and decent headphone amps? I'd prefer to listen before shelling out the cash necessary to get a good setup. For something this size I'm a bit weary of buying on reviews alone, especially if it involves getting headphones and an amp that'll go well together and get me where I want to be.
Advice?
