Anyone else using them amped? Any thoughts for me?
My audio setup it not a portable one. So, I can't help much on this matter. H2OFidelity can help you with your question. Read all these posts from this very same thread we are on. They cover sources, amps and cables. I did not express myself properly, when I wrote that cables won't make as much difference in SQ as the source, amp and headphones do. Cables are not far from the other components in their significance in SQ. I will edit that post as soon as I am finished with this one. However, from my experience I prefer a good sounding generic cable than an exotic cable. That is why I said that cables were not that important. But they are. If your generic cable is not a good quality one, it will show in the SQ.
Once you have read these posts, it would be good to send a PM to H2OFidelity asking him what he recommends.
