Hello my name is Dylan, I am no audiphile but that does not mean I do not enjoy high quality sound, its mostly I am not able to afford it. haha
I have high respect for the people here at head-fi, I know that most of you are proffesionals in your own way, whether thats an official title or not.
I really enjoy my music. I would prefer to have the best quality I can, but pricing usually affects what sound I am able to get.
I have browsed the Head-Fi forum, seeing that the Denon AH - D2000 headphones seem to be quite popular, and reccomended.
Unfortuneatly I don't have a soundsystem to hook them up to at the moment. I only have my laptop and iPod as my audio sources at the current moment.
I would like to know if purchasing the Denon AH D2000 headphones would still be a wise choice even though I am using them for this purpose.
I am aware of the headphone amps for the devices, but am not so keen on the minimum $100 price tag. I was wondering if the small (crappy) fiio pocket amps would provide a decent increase in quality (or at least volume) to the headphones if used with my laptop or iPod.
My close friend has the AKG K240 headphones, they sound really good, but I noticed at max volume on my iPod, that is were they had the minimum sound I desired. (the volume was quite low)
Would I be experiencing the same 'problem' when I use the Denon AH D2000 headphones? Would the fiio amp give me that extra volume I am interested in if that is the problem?
Obviously if it is worth the $100 to get the amp then I will get it, but the problem is it will take time, as money is tight right now.
Any information with the headphones involving the volume, how good they sound when plugged into a laptop/mp3 player alone, or any info from the relation to my friends AKG K240's.. would be extremely helpful.
I am really into electronic music, but I am a well rounded listner, I listed to lots of genres including rock, metal, pop, occasional classical, but mostly dance, drum and bass, progressive, house, etc.
If the sound quality would not be worth it for my intentions on using it, is there a <$200 pair of headphones that will be suffice?
THANK YOU FOR ANY INFORMATION,
DJP ~ Dylan
