What headphones with the 650s? if you want a headphone to comlement the 650 to get another flavour, alot of people get Grado RS1s as an alternate for Jazz, Techno, Rock....and use the 650 for classical, mellow music like Norah Jones/ Diana Krall , etc. Its all taste and youll get 100 different answers.
As far as a cheap amp....

The sidebar is your friend
Theres many more also. Firestone Audio has some tube and solid state amps too. Theres so many....but that should get you started.
They sound decent even out of a portable player to me, but they also scale very well and do much better with a good home amp.
you can start using them with anything really, but i wouldnt purchase 650s if all your gonna do is use them on a portable. And theyre a little delicate for daily outdoor use, plus theyre open.
For that sound in a cheaper can id get 595 or px100 etc.
