I was just about to order a move and they are gone. So I have to wait til february for the new replacement by Jan. I have no amp. Will using them out of my laptop and burning them in for that long harm them? I have HD595s and HF-1s. Thanks I really dont have the money to waste since I REALLY want a usb amp/dac and always wanted a meier unit. I was thinking maybe get a pa2v2 or something cheap til the new model comes out but will it really hurt my cans without one?

I cannot possibly imagine that running your headphones without an amp would harm them. Quite the opposite actually. Overpowering your headphones with a very strong amp is likely to harm them.

Let's not forget that there's an amp powering the headphone jack of your laptop. Granted, it's a fairly weak one, but it's an amp nontheless.

You'll be fine.

Given the nature of your headphones, you might even be disappointed by the marginal increase in sound quality when you do get the Move...
