So my hi-fi n00b self's been stalking this thread in hopes of learning what headphones x amp to get to boost my humble music listening—and I say humble because I only own 2 iPod classics—and so far, I've been learning how to curl up in a ball and cry and die of envy

Welcome to Head-Fi ... sorry about your wallet.
 
I have an iPod Classic Gen 5.5 and it's still one of my favorite sources; I pair mine with a FiiO E11K - about $50 US - paired with reasonable, inexpensive headphones, it's all you need. Start with a Senn HD 558 or 598 and you can be set for a long while.

Budget's not a major concern -- I just really don't know yet what to get! I've been advised to start with FiiO E17K + FiiO LOD + Sennheiser Momentum Over-Ear, so I might do just that.

I've also been looking to purchase my first hi-fi DAP; I've got my eyes on AK100/120 or Ibasso DX-90 (and maybe AK240 or Sony NW-ZX2 someday!). Which one should I get?

Get all of them... that's the only way you can be sure you chose wisely.

Does headphoneus supremous give you an automatic "IDGAF" card regarding headphone stands????

 

[wahsmoh]

Haha oh god those AKG K1000s always find their way onto something or someone.. mostly because people point and say "those are not headphones" they are actually earspeakers

Hah what are the odds! Maybe we also look alike

 
Funniest thing I've read all week!

Instead of my Head-Fi Station, I'll show you guys my makeshift airport setup!

If I need isolation, I've got the MC5. If I need moar bass, the M50 is close at hand. Poor thing is really wearing away though.
Yes, I have a Scooby Doo mouse pad. Yes, the game is Half Life. I'm about to crowbar some vortigaunts!
Note:It's awkward playing violent video games in public.

Is that the Schiit BiFrost? How much of a diffeence does it make?
