I am a student with very limited money living in Finland. I own a SR-80 and a MB Quart QP400 (mini HD600, in a sense). I listen to almost everything. I use my Sony CDP-XE310 CD player for home listening, which I run through my Marantz 5.1 reciever. For portable I use a combo of Sony D-EJ825 Walkman/iPod Shuffle (1gb)/Creative Jukebox Zen Extra (30gb) and SR80.
On my compuer I have a Audigy 1 sound card, which I used to run through my reciever. Now, however I've bought a DVD player, so the usual dvd slot on my reciever will be taken (the one i used to connect my computer to). It would be really nice to have my headphones run through a separate amplifier for them, which would be easily moved.
Now to the question....
Should I be wanting an amplifier??
And If I should, which one??
As a reminder, I live in Finland, so Cmoys arent easily accessible here, unless a finnish member on the boards wants to sell me one.
My only real choice is to order online, and I dont want to spend more than about $70, including shipping.
Another thing I could concider is building my own cmoy, but because my DIY skills are quite basic the risk might not be worth it.
Thanks for reading this far,
