I'll be getting my first set of ~nice cans soon, and I'm wondering - my main source of audio for now is going to be a Macbook Pro. Is there an asymptote I should be aware of in terms of the output of the MBP not being improved (and perhaps made to sound worse) by nicer cans?
Like, $100 cans would sound nice, but $500 cans would just point out some of the flaws of the MBP audio - does that make sense?
Also - is there a way to improve the MBP's audio? I found an old USB soudcard - the M-Audio USB. And it works, and I do hear a difference, but it eats up a consistent 30% CPU. it is old though, so newer ones may be better.
