Hi All - I'll introduce myself - name is David - I live about 30 miles East of Cleveland and am self-employed as an importer. I'm in my home office most of the working hours where I'm always listening to music. My current setup is literally a pair of PS headphones - bluetooth connected to my Mac and listening to various music via Google Play. I have a really nice home audio setup, but during the day it's all phones for me.
I'd love to upgrade my current setup - but I'm having a difficult time finding sites that offer high quality downloads of the music that I listen to. I've searched the forums here for high quality music downloads and all of the sites that have been mentioned are either no longer working or missing a lot of what I listen to. HDTracks was the most promising, but still lacked a lot of my favorites.
My main question - am I going to experience a huge improvement in sound with some great headphones if the music that I listen to isn't available in a high quality download? Meaning - If Google Play is my main source of audio or a ripped CD on Itunes - will upgrading to say Audeze LCD-3 with a nice amp/dac be worthwhile to me?
