This one is what youre talking about?  http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E7-Portable-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B003E6K1VK/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1288860111&sr=8-2-fkmr0

@RedHaze, I will be using them on my Laptop itself. It has a RealTek High Definition Audio card. Is that enough. How much will a decent amp cost me?

Horrible in the sense would they be worse than Hd 202s? Also how much does it cost for a decent amplifier. Any damages to hearing?

Anyone knows the actual releasedate?

I like the HD598 very much so I think Ill go with that. Anyone knows where to purchase it online for USA?   I searched and couldnt find a site that sells it. If not available finally Ill go for the HD 595 or 598 if thats available

Whats the difference between the HD555 and the 558s? Also how much does the HD598 cost? Is it just the HD595 in another colour scheme? I like the white colour and design.

Hmm sounds good. Im leaning towards the HD 555 now. Anyone else supporting this?

Anyone?

Hmm. The specs of the AD700 seem good. It's just the design thats a bit dull. Any Denon phones I should consider?   What about the Audio between 555 and the 700?   Which has more bass, better clarity, detail etc?

Oh just noticed the Shures arent open.   Ill stick with Open.   Yea thats why I checked with the Senns first.   Ok. So between the Senn HD555 and AT AD700? ALso I will be using this for long periods everyday. At least 4 hours even over 10 hours some days.   So it has to be...

Ok so no to AMPs then. Will just be using the headphones alone.   So between the Sennheiser HD555, Audio Technica AD700 and the Shure SRH840 or SRH750? Which one would you pick?

Hmm. I think ill go with the open backed ones then. At least I can experience something new.   So which among the open backed ones is the best within 200 dollars?   Are these amps any good? http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E5-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B001P9EQH8/ref=pd_bxgy_e_text_c

I guess I can push the price upto 200 dollars max if the phones are worth it.   I guess Ill go for the open ones as I'll be keeping my HD202 as well so can use that in case theres too much noise. Apart from the external noise and sound going out, do the open phones provide better audio...

Hmm that sounds good. Hows the 555 compared to the 458 or 280Pro?   What sort of modding are you talking about?   Also what do you think of the Shure SRH840 and 750DJ?

I will be using it at home mostly in a room. Its quiet. Slight noise at times maybe but nothing too loud. Not looking to use it outdoors   Im worried about the open back. Is that an issue? People say the sound goes out as well. So does that mean that equal sound goes out or just a small...

Quote: Quote: The HD555 comes with 6.3 to 3.5mm adaptor right?   Ok so now to narrow things down, among the Sennheisers which is the best? After that I guess we can compare with the Denon and the Shure

Slaughter! Thanks a lot for the reply.   I will mostly be plugging it into my laptop, a Toshiba A200. And sometimes even into phones to listen to music.   I will be using it mainly for Music and Movies.   Music is not limited to a specific genre. I listen to all kinds as long as they...

I know it's not good to keep posting. But this is a bit urgent. So it would be great if anyone could offer some advice. Thanks a lot

Anyone?
