I'm assuming your 701's are plugged directly into the computer? If so there is a good chance you could get a fuller sound from a dedicated sound card and/or amp. I've never used the 701's but in my experience I've found anything over 32ohm, and even some 32ohm headphones benefit from some sort of amping. The 701's are 62ohm.

I have a Xonar DG and a receiver, although they sound better directly from the Xonar. The receiver (it's in the bottom right corner) makes them sound even brighter, I was comparing them right now. I can't afford a Magni for another year.

At 62 ohm you really aren't going to need something expensive. I'm sure FiiO E5 ($15) plugged directly into your wall will work well. It even has a bass switch if you want a little more bass.

Pretty sure the Xonar DG comes with A better amp than the fiio
 
I am absolutely broke for now, i prefer to get a magni because one day I would like an HD600/650. Im a jobless high school student. I owe my parents $100 for my Q701. I got these for $123 so it doesn't bother me.

  Get a job? 

No I'm good, I'm not that desperate for audio equipment. I can wait. There is a thing called not having transportation to work, homework, and volunteer work.

That looks sick! I wish I knew the U2414h existed when I bought my U2312hm's. Couple of questions:
 
-Are you using the Woo or Schiit with your A5's?
-Which do you prefer more?
-Holy crap, is that dust?!
 
Updated setup. Next on the list now is to sell these U23's and get your monitors. :)

  Sometimes I go a little bit overboard...
 
 

 

 

 
 
The recon3d in the pic has been replaced with a ZXR.
 
And here's a shot of my old rig:
 

Wow.
What case is that? Looks really nice.
