Hi guys,
First off I'd like to introduce myself, I'm Mason from Boston. I'm very new to the audio world. I've went thru a few pairs of headphones from beats, Bose, B&W. and some how I'm just not content. Until now I realized theres a really high end market for premium headphones as well as amps. All this is too much to digest the terms the jargon etc. Well WHat I'm looking or hoping to attain is a nice pair of headphones and amp. I've been looking at the Audeze LCD 2 or HE-500. and woo audio fireflies or Schiit audio. I guess my real question is do i need a headphone amp specific to attain the sound quality from these headphones? Or can i just use my home audio amp. I have a old marantz amp, if properly set up can i use that to drive my headphones? Or if I get the Schitt amp and dac would i be able to drive my speakers with them? sorry for such a long post any comments advice would be highly helpful
