Hi everyone, first post here so I'll try to keep it short and sweet
On my desk I currently use my HIFIMAN HE400S headphones and my Polk TSX 220B bookshelf speakers, but with a very old, pre-digital receiver with not so great headphone capability at all, everything sounds whisper thin and anemic, and I feel that the speakers could be better as well, and might get something a bit more high end. What would you guys recommend? Should I
1. Put up with it
2. Replace the receiver with something more modern (Will this make a big difference in sound quality?)(Around $400 USD)
3. Replace the receiver and upgrade the speakers (Want to spend around $700 USD)
* I only really use them with my computer
4. Ditch the headphones and go for a speaker that includes the amp in it
I recently listened to the KEF LS50 wireless and those were phenomenal
