G'evening Head-Fiers!
I love music, can't live without it, be it at home or on the road, I must have it with me, else I end up with some tune ringing in my head over and over and I can't bloody get it out.
I recently got rid of my Symbian phone and made an upgrade to an Android one (HTC Desire, aka Google Nexus One). First piece of software I got was a decent Media player that supports lossless audio (Meridian Media Player).
Now I've come to a point where I no longer wish to listen to my tunes with the cheapo bundled headphones or getting cheapo replacements when those die. So I would like get some recommendations and suggestions, if possible, from you, hard-core head-fiers.
The question that bothers me the most is just how much can I realistically expect to get out (in terms of sound quality) of a device whos main function is not to play back music?
I've done some research and homework and have put my eye on a pair of AKG K450 (or K370 from their in-canal phones), so any comments or alternatives of those would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch!
