After reading the boards for less then a week Ive decided I want these. But this board doesnt seem like my age group so I fear that different music is being listened too. I love older rock like the beatles, but I am a metalhead at heart. I am also a sucker for newer bands such as Linkin Park and Evanesence. Are these the headphones for me? SOAD is also a band that I think will sum up my listening habits. What Im getting at is, are these still good headphones for me? Even thought the music I listen too likes it, im not the biggest bass head in the world.
My current gear is a Sony MZ707 MD player, Sony DEJ1000 and a pair of D66 eggos, and Koss portapros.
I know I dont have the best gear around but hey I like it. Here is my next question, Will the DEJ1000 be a good player to use with HD600's? I know Id need an amp with it, so How does a nice meta42 sound? And if it wont sound that good whats a good player? I was maybe looking at a Sony D25?
I know Im giving a raher portable rig, but this is for home use, and Id like to keep it 'portable'.
So after all of that, how does this sound?
Sony DEJ1000 >> Meta42 >> HD600
or if I have to...
Sony DEJ1000 >> Meta42 >> HD600
Id also like to keep this 'rather' cheap, like not get into anything above $400 for phones and $200 for amp. The D25 can be found for about $40 on ebay right?
I know its all jumbled up, but thanks for the help.
EDIT: Is it really necessary to buy new cables for the HD600 right off the bat, I mean, how much can cables help it?
EDIT2: All of this will most likely be bought over the summer/fall when I get a job. This will also have to last me a long time as it will be going with me to college.
Will it last if it is taken care of?
EDIT3: There is NO place around me to try out these phones, or any like them, Is it safe to order them off the net without trying? Whats a good place to get them?
