I just want your comparisons solely based on sound quality. with or without an amp.

Are you going to sell or keep the HD 595 once you get the 650? And why did you buy the E5c along with the E3c, again? I'm kind of confused on that part. |

I just want a variety of sets to create different listening experiences. I'm eying the Beyerdynamics and Sonys right now. I ordered E5c to compare them to the E4Ps. I ordered the E3c b/c I went a "beater" set to keep in my golf bag. I can easily see heaphones getting ripped apart during a golf swing. My next task is to educate myself on headphone amps. The headphone jack in my B&K 507 sounds great, but I decided to start with a Total Bithead for my laptop/Ipod listening and a Musical Fidelity X-CAN V3 for an entry into tube amps. The bottom line though, is that I love music and am ecstatic that I stumbled into the world of headphones. |
