Just picked Shure SRH840 today after trying to decide between cheapos in the $50-70 range like the m30s m40s, or going out around $100-200 for the m50s, SRH750DJ, M-Audio Q40.. and finally decided on the Shure SRH840 cause I got a killer deal on them for $90.
I'm trying to get into the world of audiophiles and want to know where I can start to get the most out of my music. I'm not in music production or anything, I just listen and play. So far, I use it to listen to iTunes library on my computer. I don't have a sound card that's legit, I just use the onboard sound card that's on my Z68 motherboard. I also have Logitech x-540 speakers which has a headphone jack but I'm not sure if it's amplified or what. I'm not even really sure what a headphone amp does other than make things louder.
Are there any softwares I can download to tweak stuff or any suggestions on getting the most out of these expensive ass headphones while keeping it on a budget? I'm not looking to spend hundreds on a professional computer sound card or anything.
