    Upgrade from AKG K701 to Q701?

    I've seen a lot of different viewpoints about this and I'm still a bit confused as to what's what. I use my AKG K701 on a regular basis and I do enjoy them for the most part - very detailed and revealing, nice soundstage, terrific treble although on the negative side lacking in bass, bass punch...

    Heed CanAmp

    Comparing HD600/HD650 with K701 while amping with Heed Canamp I would certainly go with AKG. The synergy is much better in that combo. For HD600/650 I would recommend a nice tube amp.

    FiiO Mont Blanc/E12 portable headphone amp, 880mW, slim design, full metal case. Bass boost and Cross feed!

    So, judging from you you could only buy an amp to the Ipod touch if you are to drive "bigger" headphones? I have AKG K701 and Sennheiser HD 600 as well but I don't plan to use those for this portable gear but only the Sennheiser Momentum. Isn't it possible to gain improvement in sound quality...

    FiiO Mont Blanc/E12 portable headphone amp, 880mW, slim design, full metal case. Bass boost and Cross feed!

    Funny how different we are when we review and have opinions on these matters. I had an ipod touch, 3 gen, for a while but I had to trash that because the home button didn't work anymore, etc, so I got this 5 gen. instead and the sound quality is much worse - tinny sound, the 3 had a meatier...

    FiiO Mont Blanc/E12 portable headphone amp, 880mW, slim design, full metal case. Bass boost and Cross feed!

    Recently bought an Ipod touch, 5th generation, which might be a mistake because of the sound quality = not very good. However, I've seen much reviews in favor of this Mont Blanc amp so I figure on a purchase. In reviews I have seen people are using a line out cable such as Fiio L9 instead of...

    Heed CanAmp

    Let's see if Heed CanAmp will work for me. It's been in my possession now for 1 1/2 day and I must say that is appears to be a decent amp for HD 600. I have it to try out for two weeks so hopefully I'll be able to make an informed decision. The question is how long it will be before it begins to...

    Heed CanAmp

    So this amp is a nice match for Sennheiser HD600? This business of deciding what amp to buy has been quite an ordeal. People shooting off different opinions, as for instance that the amp in question in fact IS NOT a good match with Sennheiser HD600. After trying out one second hand amp, Musical...

    Headphone Amp for Sennheiser HD600

    I suppose it says it all. What I want to get are recommendations for a headphone amp, if possible the best amp and also some priceworthy ones. The headphone is Sennheiser HD600, which I am satisfied with, so the key is to find an amp that will play with these phones, as well as with my CD-player...
