100+ Head-Fier
Alright, I'm fairly new to this whole headphone audiophile thing, and I even bought my first headphone amp, the Little Dot II++ just back in July of this year as well as some other audio equipment, as a result of being here in Head-fi.
Now my question is, is there supposed to be a noticeable sound difference when plugging some headphones (my AD700's) directly from a sound source and plugging it into an amp? I mean, when I plug my phones into a source to study the sound a little bit, then hook it up to my amp from that source and plug in my phones to that amp, is there supposed to be a difference? Because my somewhat untrained ears don't really notice it. Unless AT headphones don't scale dramatically to amps as opposed to most Sennheisers as far as I heard and seen. Can anyone fill me in on this? You guys know your stuff. Enlighten me.
