Hi,
Im looking to buy my first proper headphone set and my very first amp in a couple of months.
I went into my local home audio shop and tried some Grado 225's and some K701's both were amped. The Grado's sounded good but werew really uncomfortable on my massive ears. The K701's wer very comfy and sounded great.
Anyway, I have also read that the K601's, Hd600, Hd650 & BT880 are very good.
I think I will get a Little Dot Mark III if i get one of those headphones.
Now I have just seen the Stax SRS2050 II system for £450 - with this I could buy it and be done with it. I wouldn't have to worry about import taxes, customs or anything.
Im basically looking for something "good" for rock/indie/pop, Movies as well as PC gaming.
My source has already been bought and installed - the Asus Xonar D2 sound card
Please help me, Im totally confused by all this talk of colour, warmth, muddy, etc etc. I have a massive headache now
