First timer here. I've been lurking recently because I realized I needed new headphones and I dont know who to trust for advice. seems like people here know what they're talking about! So thanks for existing. haha.
I just bought the ATH-m50s after returning my Klipsch image s4s.
I loved the sound from the Klipsch but they tore at the sleeve and I was really really pissed that the build was so crappy after a month-Amazon was kind enough to accept them even though it was past the 30days -36th day.
How much different are these? Will the sounds be more full and will I hear the distinctiveness of classical music, and appreciate the thumping bass of rap?
I liked the Klipsch because until then I had cheap skull candys. But I could feel like the classical parts were not full-the strings were almost there but not quite for me. The bass was not full but they are IEMs so I guess to be expected. Also, I did not really enjoy the guitar riffs as they still sounded muddled like they did with cheap headphones.
Will these sound that much better than the Klipschs? (If the klipsch's are significantly better than regular headphones can you say the quality difference is as stark with the m50s and Klipsch?)
Finally, I use these mainly with my PC with no soundcard (I used to have a extreme x-fi but it broke). Should I get the portable amp then?
Or is this only for iphone etc. Also, does the fioo e5 come with an extra cord to connect it to the pc? If not, what do I need to buy then? I can only find cords to connect to the Iphone/pods. Please help.
Thanks!
