Hi, guys. Just purchased two new headphones, AKG K701 and Sennheiser PXC 450. Before this I never owned headphones, just earbuds: Audio Technica ATH CK7. I'll be using Leben CS600, but I'll have the amp in April/May, and am looking for a headphone amp to use in the meantime.
I'd like to receive your input on headphone amps, as I am pretty clueless. I was thinking about a portable amp, so when the Leben comes in, I can just use the amp w/ my mp3 player. But I am loathe to give up sound quality. Are there portable amps that rival or surpass the capabilities of a standalone, non-portable amps?
For that matter, what ARE some of the amps I should be considering? I went to one of the audio dealers to demo some speakers the other day and this one guy was raving about Heed or something... Thanks!
