Im looking to get some new headphones and as such I was lucky enough to stumble upon this ridiculously awesome site. Ive spent the last week of my life on head-fi reading and absorbing all the information I can about audio equipment. I do however want to make sure im thinking of sound in the correct manner. Please correct or confirm my theories on sound.
1)If you have a ten dollar portable cd player and hd600's, your still going to get 10 dollar sound.
2)If you have high end source and crappy headphones, you get crappy sound.
3)All an amp does is allow the headphones to run at their maximum capability.
Basically Im thinking that the sound quality is as good as the weakest link in the chain. Any clarification my (mis?)conceptions would be great.
