Hi all, longtime reader, and now I'm ready to participate. I was introduced to the wonderful world of Hi-Fi by getting my hands on some Grado SR-80's about two years back. They still make me smile when I listen to them, and even though I have not auditioned many other brands, I am confident in saying I probably would still prefer the Grado sound compared to others. I know there are lot of good cans out there though and I have been following the K701's from when there was first mention of them. I am interested in upgrading of course, and possibly hearing the sound signature from a different camp. Herein lies my conundrum; I am not that well versed in audio equipment per se, regardless of the fact that I know my sources thus far have been inadequate. (except the fact that the Zen Micro and SR-80 LOVE eachother) My humble question is, should I honestly get an amp at this point before I step up into something like the K701 or higher-end Grado? I've been drooling over the Meier Aria and have been reading excellent things. What does everyone suggest my next move be? Thank you in advance for your input.
