There seems to be the consensus among K-501 owners that have tried different amps that ehse cans are excellent for all types of music depending on the amp used. Using them without an amp is seemingly out of the question (and understandably).
This said, what would 'the consensus' say about *which* amp is the best match. Granted this is a subjective question.
I am going to get a pair while they are on-sale at musiciansfriend.com ($120 + shipping) and I'm thinking about the MG OTL head to mate with the AKGs but I want other's opinions.
I currently have Koss Portapros (which are just incredible considering they shipped with my MP3 player), and Sony 7506s.
For amps I have Meier's Porta on-hand and a Corda/Analoguer combo expected in the mail soon.
I also expect to be getting some Koss Plugs (modded,of course), the HD600s and some Etymonic ER4Ps with a DIY switchbox to convert them to ER4S/Bs.
This said, is the MG OTL head the right choice for me and the AKGs (which will likly be my next cans seeing how they are on sale so darn cheap).
This headphone thing becomes an obsession *really* quickly. 6 months ago I would have balked at spending more than $20 for headphones.
