Hey there,
So I've gotten pretty tired of having a good sized (and often high bitrate) music collection without a single pair of decent headphones. Right now I've basically got one of those cheap Sennheiser headsets, and a pair of decent earbuds from them too. I want something better.
I've been eying the HD650s because they seem to be good quality headphones at a reasonable price. I did notice, however, that at basically every review site I've been to, people say you should get a headphone amp to really enjoy the HD650s.
The 650s will be a bit over 300, so I'd prefer to keep the amp within the $300 range. I can maybe step that up a bit if there is a significant reason to do so (keep in mind I'm fairly new to this, so I don't know if I want or need a $1,000 amp right now), but I'd rather keep it below that mark. I've been looking around Meier-Audio's website, and am considering the Corda Move.
Any recommendations for the HD650? Also, general advice about hi-fi headphone setups is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
