Hi All,
Basically, I want to start using headphones to watch moves and play Xbox in the lounge room. Wife isn't too thrilled with the sounds of war coming from the lounge, so have been using my 515's for this purpose.
Now, as I am a tech geek, and love shiny toys and nice sound, I was wondering if it would be worth upgrading to something better. What I'm confused about is what I need to spend to gain any noticeable improvement over this set (which will ultimately determine if I can afford it right now).
I'm definitely looking into a small amp (like a mixamp), however confused about this as I already have a normal amp. However, I assume the surround emulation is the difference here? Also, I have a set of gr07s (my babies, they will be buried with me), and wonder if these will sound better than the 515s over mixamp type device.
Thanks,
B
