So do u reckon an Aria will fit my needs better than a tube amp? Does the Aria brighten up the sound of the dt880 as well then?

I have been searching the forums, like a crazed freak suffering from the yearning of an upgrade, and i can't come to conclusion as to what i should buy for my laptop. Straight to the point: I'm search of a new DAC and Amp with a budget of around £400 (which can increase given that it would...

The TTVJ price of 395$ for the shure e500, does it include the Push to hear device? I guess im gonna have to reorder the earphones now, considering i paid the 495$.

ARGH! i hate head-fi lol. i just bought myself a pair of dt880s. resistance is futile lol

So the amp makes the whole spectrum, basically, more defined? So is it fairly neutral then? Argh, so tempted to get them now with my dt880

so would it be best for me to buy an amplifier and not a DAC with it? Whats the difference between the meier one and the firestore one? Has anyone tried both?

Well i recently got some DT880, and i want an amp because i cant help but feel as if theres a veil holding back the mids and bass. I've done some research but im still not sure what i should do. Please note that the sound card i have is a plain old Audigy, not Audigy 2. I was looking into...

I got a pair of DT880 recently in hong kong. I just couldn't wait for the re-release of them. I can safely say i love them. I even tried my shure E4c again recently and thought, "where the **** is the bass and highs?!" hehe. I never really knew the shures were so biased towards the mids. I don't...

you got your's already? When did you order them? Who from? I ordered mine from the the audio insider ten days ago and the order is still "pending" but then again thats probobly because i live in the UK.

ok thanks for the hong kong tips. i've decided to get some dt880s. Need to look for an amp now Now lets let this tread die.

great tip on the cash thing janos. ok so i figured what i asked for was far tooo broad. let me reiterate: which headphone + amp combo sounds the best for jazz in your opinion that is less than £200, from a creative SB audigy. i guess you can ignore the store now.

As the title says, im going to hong kong on the 20th october and i will be buying some cans there as the choice there is much greater than anywhere i know in the uk, not to mention the prices are also cheaper sometimes. I will be going to this store: http://www.headphonehk.com/, so please try...

great help vertigo thanks.

that's great vertigo. Well i am used to a sub but im not a bass freak. Just in case though, if i ever decided to get a sub, how would i connect it all together? Sorry bout these questions, im inexperienced when it comes to this stuff.

Ok i think im gonna get the swan m200 now. One thing im worried about now is the whether i have enough bass for gaming (first person shooters and WoW ). I will proboly order them from the audio insider too. Vertigo, do you use a sub woofer with your swans or do you find the bass to be sufficient?
