Hi,
I just ordered a Creative NJB3 as my portable for commuting tunes. I ride the subway to work, which is horrible noisy so I opted to get Ety 4Ps, which I understand provide quite good isolation. I also am aware that they can be difficult to drive. Will the NJB3 completely fail to drive the Ety's satisfactorily? Will I absolutely need an external amp?
Just curious. I do intend to get an amp (or likely build one myself) down the road but I was wondering if I can get away with not having one for now. However, I do have high standards for audio performance.
TIA,
Josh
