Firstly, Hi all newbie posting
I am currently in Korea and in the next week ill be getting a new mp3 player or pmp (I am thinking either a cowon D2,A3 or possibly any of the other many korean brands ... :s) .... I wondered if you guys could give me some advice on a nice pair of headphones for portable players....
I dont really like buds, so i would prefer to get a decent pair of cans.... I have been reccomended the audio technica ATH-ESW9 ... as they are smaller than studio phones..... are they worth getting??
If not what do you guys reckon are worth buying?? my budget is up to $400.... and the i listen to many kinds of different music ... so i dont want a pair that is only good for a certain kind of music.....
Also will i need an amp for a D2 or A3?? and if i do what amp is of quality but not too expensive.....
thanks in advance guys..
