Hello,
I have been wanting to move from iems to full size cans for sometime and recently the Audeze LCD-2 has intrigued me with the rave reviews on Head-Fi. I am very new to the music equipment area (having only owned a couple of sony earbuds and a shure se535) and have previously just been running my music from a Cowon J3. Am I wasting my time getting a headphone like a LCD-2 only to be paired with a Cowon J3? I am aware of the LCD-2 needing an amp and do intend to invest in one once I have enough money (looking at a Woo 6SE) however I still prefer to run my music through a mp3 player (personally preference - shrugs ). Would having a mp3 player as a source be so detrimental to music quality of the LCD-2 where it becomes a stupid choice?
Cheers
