Well, I might just add a bit in each forum because I know you have experts in each category. So I want to single out some of my options the best I can from the best info some of you experts can give out.
I'm into Rock, Alternative Rock, Bass (yes, I'm from Miami so you know I'm into it), I'm really LOVING Classical and some jazz. I do like a nice headphone that envelopes me in a deep, bass filled and warm sound. I do like the boomy bottoms but I really love the tight punch on bass from Rock and Jazz.
3 headphones and 1 trump. That's what I'm looking at right now. I know... Names.
Audio-Technica ATH-AD700, Audio-Technica ATH-A700, Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 80 and the possible Trump... Grado 80 or 225.
I really want to keep it to less than $200. I will be using the iPod. I'm actually thinking about a DIY CMoy that I will try myself. If not, then un-amped. But I'm really leaning towards LOD and Amped.
But I'm looking for suggestions as far as which will be the Best Sounding for an Un-Amped iPod and a LOD-Amped iPod.
Oh, and how should I rip my music? Which is the better format for an Un-amped iPod and either or headphones that go well with the setup?
Great forum and lots of info. You guys are full of info and I can't get enough of reading it all.
