i'm 14 and last year when i was thirteen i got the alessandro ms1. it didn't seem too much better int he beginning compared to my steelseries 3h "gaming" headset, but when i went back i could barely bare the sound  i tried some ath-m50 earlier and i really didn't like them as much as i think...

Well i've decided i'm going to save up a bunch of money until April to get a decent setup. Now all i've had so far is a MS1 unamped (inwhich I tripped over the cable in an accident when I was extremely jetlagged and stripped off part of the PCB). So now I thought I might as well go quite a bit...

Quote: Yeah that's what I thought.  It's the 32 Ohm version. I'm thinking I might not even need an amp at all but if I plan on upgrading anything it might be nice. I will get a large grant of money in January so I thought it would be smart to buy an amp now and buy a pair of headphones...

I need for it to be able drive a DT880. Size can be anything because I've got plenty of room on my desk. I would prefer solid state. Just a simple 6.5 mm input and 6.5 mm output would be nice. It would be really nice to be able to get a DAC packed in but it's not really needed.

hello guys I need an amp I can buy for about 100-125 dollars and are available in canada thanks a lot to all you guys helping

Well basically after I came back from my vacation and I was completely jetlagged, when I was going to get a drink my foot caught the cable for my Ms1 and basically I tripped but the headphone side of the cable cable was still stuck in the headphone. however, when I started listening again, i...

Hello, I am looking for a new USB DAC/Amp this Christmas and I'm not sure what to get. Possibly a HotAudio Bit Perfect, but I've read a few bad things about them. My budget is around 80 Canadian dollars. It has to be able to be shipped to Canada.

He just said he needed closed headphones, sorry.

L4d and windows 7.

I have a friend who needs a setup for 200 bucks for gaming. Any suggestions? It requires a mic of some sort, most likely clip on, and headphones. Also, if he needs it, a soudncard/DAC. He has the Realtek HD right now iwth a f4tality headset.

No I mean like output of my sound card. Oh wait, does that come from the USB? So this will be better than all the things suggested in OP?

Can't I just buy that here directly from the hotaudio site? BIT PERFECT USB DAC HEADPHONE AMPLIFIER [BIT PERFECT USB DAC AMP] - $62.00 : HOTAUDIO.COM, Hand Made Audio Perfection! Also, will a 3.5mm output work for this? Or do I need to grab a convertor?

Oh never mind, when I plug in my cheap speakers to full, I can hear a hissing sound. What would you recommend anyways?

No amp, alessandro MS1. Also, when I put the volume to max, either nothing is coming out of my headphones, or I'm deaf.
