PS3 -> HDTV ->?? -> 100$ish headphones (audio newbie)
AD700s are actually great gaming headphones, I have a pair of A700s (closed instead of the open AD700s) and use them for gaming. I use Astro wireless Mixamp 5.8 and find it works amazingly for games of all types as well as movies. I have a 360 and PS3. When gaming you plug it straight into the...- CloakedMistborn

I teach in the inner city ghetto, if they have genuine Dre's they were part of drug deals lol. They mostly have super crappy IEMS or decorative portable headphones from sony, jvc or skullcandy. I have one kid that is super intelligent and listens to classic rock, jazz, and classical. Don't ask...- CloakedMistborn

Yeah Money for Nothing was the first song I listened to. It is sort of my go to reference song. I am going to listen to some Boston and Adele then some oldschool Earth, Wind & Fire sounds like a great suggestion.- CloakedMistborn

Headphone suggestions to go with Fiio E11.
I have a fiio e11 paired with an A-700, I enjoy it but those were rather random purchases I have only recently come down with the disease of audiophillia so I am not sure what more knowledgeable and experienced people would think of that combo. -

Should I get an Amp or DAC?
It depends how much you want to spend but I think the Audinst Mx1 or Yulong D100 would both be great choices, the E10 is a more inexpensive option. Hop over to headfonia.com Mike has good reviews on combo Amp/Dacs.- CloakedMistborn

I don't mind the wait as long as I get an email status update. I ordered a DT880/600 to go with the amp. I should get those in sometime this week. Do y'all think an e11 can power those while I wait for the wa6? I guess I does give me a chance do a slight burn in on the dts if the e11 is up to...- CloakedMistborn

How long does it typically take to get a new amp in once you order? I can't stop thinking about the wa6 I ordered three days ago. The wait is killing me. I imagine it's a big difference from the fiio e11 I have now.- CloakedMistborn

Damn you head-fiers, I bought an Audio Technica A700 a few months ago, followed by a fiio e11 and then a Music Streamer II (I caught upgraditis quick). Yesterday I caved in and ordered DT880s 600 ohm and a WA6 with the Sophia upgrade. Hopefully it is a good combination to last me quite a while.- CloakedMistborn
