Hey guys, I'm new to head-fi, so if this is posted in the wrong forum, then sorry in advance.
Anyway, I haven't been a real headphone enthusiast until recently and I got given a pair of "Bose On Ear's" at Christmas (2009). And I thought, for the price tag that they would be a good listen. And then I came on here, lol. I had a pair of Sony MDR-V300's earlier on - when I was quite young - and have had them for many years and they sound much much cleaner, albeit less bass. Could that be because of burn in?
I'm buying some Sennheiser HD201's, as that seems a good choice for the money I have at the moment, and many threads I've read say they're pretty good. Would that be a good choice? Should I buy a headphone amp with it - I would probably only buy one if it made an incredible amount of difference; does it?
Also, anyone got any tips about listening? As I, have not used headphones as much as many of you, I cannot hear a significant difference between my two sets of headphones (MDR-V300 and Bose On Ears). Will I be able to hear more difference in time? Or what?
Thanks.
