The cowon iaudio10 can drive 24mW to the right and 24mW to the left ear at 16ohms. I am planning on the Shure SRH440. (India is really expensive for audio the 440's cost $120) Would i need an additional amp to power it? fii0 e6 or something? or is this enough? I listen to rock 90% of the time (Queen, Pink Floyd etc)

I'm looking for a pair of phones for portable uses. At this point, I'm considering momentum, but i heard that maddogs are the best at their price point. Advice please?

No, he accidentally sent the wrong link.

I live in Jamaica so that is not really an option.

 

i'm sure there's some sort of audio shop near you.

depends on what kind of sound signature you're looking for. I personally like the dt1350, very clear and has minute detail, with a balanced presentation. It also comes with the most space saving carrying case i've seen yet and has the best passive isolation of anything i've ever heard. some downsides are that the headband might press against the side of your head and that the fit is VERY finnicky.

You're correct--although web sites and email addresses are listed to contact them for authorized dealers within their respective territories.  This might provide a more direct answer:

Don't know your specific equipment, but the 440 is quite easy to drive.  An iPhone 4 has no problem powering it.  The specs are set forth in the manual:

I don't doubt that but what I highly doubt is that they have they latest equipment or even close to the latest e.g. whenever I am building a new computer I source all my parts from overseas because 1. The products are here for triple to quadruple the price (and that is one a good day) or the parts are just not here period.

The best bluetooth stereo in-ears with a budget up to $100. Any recommendations?
 
Thanks!

My new dt1350s hurt.

I want closed, comfy, mids and smooth highs if possible.

Budget. Upto 400gbp ideally.

Source. Cowon j3. Amp is okay if needed.

Though i have thought about a new pmp and external dac.

Thoughts?

And thanks!

You said "closed & comfy", I just picked up a pair AKG K550 for the office and these have to be some of the nicest closed cans I've ever heard, and very comfy.

Hi, 
 
I'm looking for a pair of over-ear headphones that are around or under $140. I'm willing to look on eBay / Amazon, and the likes of those. My main use for these will be music. I'll be using these for school, so they need to be fairly light, and easily portable. 
 
They need to: 
 
- Look good
- Sound good (I like my bass, but I don't want it to drown out everything else)
- Fold up
- Be a closed headphone
 
I'd like, but they don't have to: 
 
- Have a detachable cord
- Have Noise Cancelling
- Have a matte finish
- Allow me to daisy chain

The 550s sound good, thanks. Will read some more reviews.

I had kinda ignored AKG previously thinking they were bass heavier.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL.  I live in St. Louis, one of the largest cities in the midwestern United States and we don't have a real audio shop that has headphones. >.<

Hi, Im looking for a good pair of headphones, i listen to all types of music but a lot of rap and hip hop. Im looking for clean, punchy bass kinda like a theater sound system type of sound. I also would like heavy bass but not so much so that it drowns out the mids and highs. My budget is up to $250 US.
