I've recently been bitten by the audiophile headphone bug, and couldn't stop myself from ordering a pair of Sennheiser HD 580s (for a great price: $149 shipped, new)- they just arrived today. And while I'm very new to all of this, I am aware that they need to be broken in - but they sound fantastic already!
The only other headphones I have to compare these against are my old Sony MDR-V700DJs (I know these have a horrible reputation around here, but they were my first pair of good headphones) and my other pair of Sennheisers, HD 497s.
Is a Cmoy amp enough amplification for the HD 580s, or should I expect additional improvement with more power?
Thanks for everything I have learned from these forums. I have been lurking for a while, and that's how I came to decide on the 580s...
