I will definitely agree with you. This thread has really been outstanding. We've got a few users that are really holding this thread together. Thanks guys.
Well, to answer your question about the XB700's needing an amp, I'll have to say no. Although, the Fiio E5 seems to be a popular pick to combine with the XB700's, mainly due to it's bass boost. Generally speaking though, they don't need an amp, as it really won't benefit them much. I'm sure it won't benefit your wallet much either.
I'm not sure about the HFI-580 though. One thing for sure, if you are a bass fanatic, the XB series is really the way to go. And it might even save you a bit of money. Perfect.
First off, thanks. I am really excited about the XB700's. To think that I can get a set that will be better than the Beats at just $80 is awesome. I still wonder though, how can the XB700's offer the same punch (meaning bass and volume) as the Beats if they are unamped. The Beats are amped so it just seems hard to believe. Trust me though I want to believe.
Will they really pound when connected to my iPod?
