Since I had them mostly taken apart I decided to disassemble them fully and give them a makeover as well. What's in a makeover you ask? Well you'll have to wait and see, but I promise you one thing, they're going to look different. I'll try to get them together later tonight, but no promises. Yes I'll post pics as soon as they're together again. Mmmmmm wood! |

I'm trying to decide which to get. They're exactly the same price. I'll be driving them (at first) from my computer sound card (which i believe is the latest intel integrated) and from my 5g ipod. I'll be using them for music, gaming, dvds, pretty much everything. I intend to add an amp at some point, but possibly not for a while (like, when I get a job next semester). I've read the Docs are extremely source sensative. Will the Hd595 sound better unamped? Will the docs sound better than the hd595 amped? |
