I'm about to purchase the Sennheiser HD800's. Mainly for use at a computer, for video editing, audio encoding and sound design. It's 'Neutral' character is exactly what I'm after.
I'm worried about how I am to power them however. I currently own the first 'Apogee Duet' but I'm afraid of it being a horrid pairing, after reading that the 800's really need a proper amp to sound good.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions, as a desktop option? I'd also like something I can chuck in my travel bag, as I'm constantly travelling. The new Apogee Groove website states that the 800's suit the Groove... But I'm just not sure!
Does anyone have any experience powering the 800's well, out of a PC / MAC?
Thanks in advance,
Ben
