i have an ipod touch 5th gen and a bose AE2 , i haven't used them in  a while since i bought my studio monitors 
 
Yesterday i had a 24hr shift i decided to play something to pass the time , for some reason i couldn't stand the headphones , it sounded very harsh and it kinda gave me a headache , and songs just didnt feel the same 
 
so i think its time to upgrade 
 
i thought about buying these Sennheiser - HD 380 PRO
 
but i think they need an amplifier to sound proper 
 
would they work well with my ipod 5th gen ? or am i better of buying one of these

I have Beyerdynamics dtx501p for travel - it comes with travel bag, airplane adaptor, foldable, has wonderful bass and clarity, great sound.  For desktop I use HD449 Sennheiser and both are wonderful.
