I have been in car audio for quite some time, but now that I am walking and talking the train/bus alot more I find myself listening to my itouch alot more these days.
I will make this brief as I appreciate your help guys.
I have the volume on my itouch set the highest it can go. I know the quality of MP3's and such will differ in the type of quality I hear through my headphones(sennheiser hd 202's), but does the ipod itself limit my headphones from achieving max "quality" and "loudness(spl)"? My headphones are rated at 115db, which is pretty loud.(I know some companies can over rated and etc) but sennheiser from what I have known has always been pretty good with their products, even though they are mainstream.
I have seen some advertisements on portable headphone amplifiers, whats the deal on those? The sennheiser hd 202's were $25 bucks(really not shabby for 25 bucks), and I am most likely going to end up going up to their more high end headphones(because I am a true audio junkie), but I don't want the headphones to be limited(waste of money), however I also don't want to cause loss of hearing. Car audio is a completely different area for me, so I was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction. Thank you.
