Hey guys,
I just bought a new DAP. It's a Creative ZEN. I'm now looking for a decent In-Ear headphone. Now, I'm prepared to fork out a substantial amount of money, if its worth it. I appreciate clear and potent sound a lot, but if my DAP won't be able to use them to their maximum potential, then theres no point in buying high end phones. I hope you guys, the experts, can help me. Currently I'm set on Shure SE310. They're the most expensive headphones I've eevr considered buying so this is quite a big deal for me.
What do you think: Will my DAP be able to max them out? Since I'm only buying the 8GB version I want to maximize the number of tracks and will therefore load it with 128-256bit MP3s. I know compressed sound isn't exactly an audiophilles wet dream, but still. So what do you say? Are the Shures an overkill? You can also reccoment other suitable phones but mind the price. Retail 200$ is the limit. I'm going to be looking at various sites for lower prices anyway. Anyway, reccomend away, I'm wide open to suggestions.
Just to give you a hand, these are the specs for my DAP: Creative ZEN
Thanks!
