Hi,
I'm starting to get more and more into my music every day, and my stock creative earbuds don't cut it.
I want to buy some new headphones for my zen micro. I listen to mainly rock music. I want something comfortable, that will sound good for being in the $60 price range.
I was considering getting the ATH-FC7's, the K 26 P's, and the K81 DJ's.
I was also considering possibly getting a cmoy amp for about 40 bucks (in a fancy little plastic case, OPA2227, 1000uF power caps, and gold plated jacks) and some KSC-75's or some other cheap cans (preferably closed or at least just semi-open), making this combo a bit cheaper than the other three 'phones, but giving me an amp to work with.
My question to you guys is, which method would make me happier while listening with my zen micro?
If it would be better to just get a pair of headphones with no amp, which should I get, considering I listen to rock music and want to get some better sound out of it.
If it would be better to get a cheaper pair of headphones with an amp, what kind of headphones would you suggest to go with it?
