    Portable Amps

    I don't want to splash out too much since i've only recently just bought the headphones. As i'm really new to this, i just wanna learn what an amp can do, so ive thought about buying the fiio. Also would it (the amp) increase the battery life of the iPhone (or any other DAP for that matter)...

    Sound card considerations

    yup sorry about that D2X is 250 AUD i could probably fork out that bit more for either the xonar D2X or STX essence, with the latter being recommended? how much of a difference would i find in having a headphone amp (ie. how much does it do?) also, any other recommendations?

    I've been wanting to get some new headphones recently, and up until now have only used IEM's, which i find are now getting quite uncomfortable. -spend anything up to $250 USD -decent enough sound isolation as i catch the bus regularly -over the ears -something comfortable, very comfortable...
