I was interested in a portable headphone amp to see if that would improve my listening experience.
My chief music player is a Samsung Helix (indentical to the Pioneer Inno) which can record programming off XM satellite broadcasts and play WMA files synched from a PC, either ripped from a CD ow downloaded from an online store.
I am using Sennheiser HD485s, which are comfortable and provide a very "warm" sound, which is good for my musical tastes.
The headroom (headphone.com) review for these phones implies that at 32 Ohms impedence, a headphone amp may not be quite as beneficial for these phones as it would be for other models.
Not being too literate in these matters, could someone weigh in?
