Ok, i'm pretty new to this audio nirvana thing, as my sig says, i only have an ipod and the e3c. after coming to head-fi, i'm thinking of upgrading. (what a surprise there...) i've been contemplating on whether i should upgrade my earphones first or get a good amp. after reading alot about earphones (and i have a preference towards IEM's over cans), the e500 looks promising for its price. i thought about the UE-10pro's but they are too ridiculously expensive... (a mortgage payment for me). so rather than taking the plunge on it, i thought the $400 e500 sounds reasonable to my wallet. i also thought about getting an amp and after reading through the site, i found that the hornet is well received. i'm quite impressed with its size as well.
so this brings back to my question, should i get the e500 or the hornet? i probably will be getting one of them and hold off on the other for another year (or until i pass the cpa exam to reward myself!!
) so which would i benefit more from?
