Hi,
Next week I'll get my upgraded Denon AVC-A1SE (5800 in the US) amp that will feature Dolby Headphone. Since my girlfriend and I like to watch movies and not bother our neighbours too much, I hope Dolby Headphone will be a more enjoyable alternative than turning the volume on the amp way down.
I'm not a headphone afficionado, the last one I bought is a Sennheiser HD 250 in ~1994 which has served me well for music, but it is starting to fall apart.
I'm now looking for a headphone solution so the two of us can enjoy movies as well as music. I also like to play console games in surround sound. We're sitting about 5 meters (15 feet) away from the Denon amp. I'm willing to spend up to 800$ for the total package.
Is there anyone in a similar situation that can recommend an appropriate setup? Do we need a headphone amp, or is there another way? Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Jeroen
