I realize I am asking about more than just headphones below but, didn't want to post the same question in three forums.
I am new to the headphone thing and need help. My wife recently had twin boys and I have not been able to listen to my main rig in a couple of months, an all Quad system. It is driving me crazy. I have a budget of $1k for headphones, amp and source and would like to go the earbud route, I think. I was looking at something from the Shure line, Creek amp and a Squeeze Box w/my computer. I talked to Vinny @ Red Wine and his IMod unit is interesting but, I am unsure because of no warranty on the IPod after he does his mods. I am going to continue to surf the forums here but, there is so much, I am having a hard time finding a starting point. I adhere to the theory that a system with high quality speakers and an average amp and source will sound better than a sytem with high quality amp and source and average speakers. I listen to Neil Young, Wilco, Uncle Tupelo and the like.
I do not need the setup to be mobile. Alright headphiles let hear some suggestions for my budget.
Thanks in advance for your help.
