Should I get a portable amp or DAC, if so, which one?
Silly, I know. Haha. I use my HP50's for music some but mostly on movies, since a movie goes on for 1.5+ hours. I let my wife use the nice 42" plasma TV with the volume on and I am in the same room with my computer hooked up via HDMI to a 32" LED TV and needed some isolating headphones to...- sdcii00

Should I get a portable amp or DAC, if so, which one?
Wow, these things are awesome! Since I am a noob, and just spent $300 on my headphones, I was hoping to start with something under $150. I know it's not a lot but I am just getting started. I haven't even been to a store to see what an amp or DAC adds. Can you please explain what I would...- sdcii00

Should I get a portable amp or DAC, if so, which one?
Hey guys. I just recently purchased a pair of NAD HP50s, which is my first pair of "real" headphones. I am not an audiofile but I do recognize good sound quality as I am a musician. The primary use I am using my headphones for are movies that I am watching from my computer that I have hooked...- sdcii00

Amp for NAD HP 50
Did you end up getting an amplifier for your NAD HP50's? I just got the HP50's and was wondering if an amp would help. They sound good, but will they sound better with an amp? Thanks!- sdcii00

Headphones for movies and isolation
I have decided on the NAD VISO HP50s and ordered a pair on Amazon last night. Would an amp be a good addition to the headphones? If so, where should I start on that venture?- sdcii00

Good review. Thanks. I have run across another headphone and wanted to know your thoughts, or anyone's. How would you compare the Nad Viso HP50 with the AKG's we're talking about?- sdcii00

Hey guys! I'm a new user here and before I begin I'd like to mention that I know there's a Recommendation Page here already, but a quick look shows me there's a LOT of information and I know over enough time I could go over it all but in the meantime I'd just like to get some simple...- sdcii00

Headphones for movies and isolation
Thanks for the reply! Ok, so now you got me looking into AKG. Haha. The K550 and K551 do not have detachable cables but the K545 does. How would the K545's compare since they have a few difference. Also, I see K272 HD. Is the K550/K551 still the best choice when considering the things I...- sdcii00

Hey guys! This is my first post and I am actively seeking a pair of headphones. I have been doing a decent amount of research and I am a newbie to purchasing headphones. I am looking for headphones that will decently block out outside noise of my wife watching her TV shows in the same room as...- sdcii00
