Okay so I have a classic 80gb Ipod (I believe it's generation 5.5). I have Senheisser HD555 headphones.
I'm looking for an amplifier to improve the sound quality of my Ipod. I posted in the full size headphone amp forum but I'm getting no answers so hopefully I'll get some replies here.
So far I've looked into 2 products I'm sure you guys are familiar with.
FiiO E5 and the FiiO E7.
Now the FiiO E5 is an amplifier and the E7 is an amplifier and a DAC. What exactly does that mean? Also I'm not very good with technology, so if you are to answer this question, please explain this answer to me in a way that I can understand (Like for example I hear that it improves the signal of your headphones to your ipod, but what exactly does that mean? Does that mean higher sound quality, etc, etc?)
Should I get an amplifier at all, or are my headphones not good enough and I wouldn't notice that big of a difference? Or would I notice a difference? Would you reccommend either one of these products for me?
Also, I already know that if I buy one of these products, I'm also going to buy an LOD.
