I'll be headed to college in the fall, and sometime over the summer I'd like to upgrade my headphone set up. What I need to decide is which route to take. Currently I do most of my listening through my iPod and UM1s (I do almost all of my listening about the house and anything other than a portable setup is annoying at the moment).
I'll be buying a portable amp in the 100 dollar range, thats for sure, as well as 150-200 for a headphone upgrade. What I can't decide is whether to sell the UM1s and move up the IEM ladder, or keep the UM1s and add a closed headphone for use around the dorm and library. Having an IEM is necessary to me, since I do a LOT of portable listening.
Right now I'm leaning towards going for the UM2 (I love my UM1s) or something along those lines, but I need convincing eitherway. As far as closed headphones, I was thinking about the A900 or D1000.
Thanks a bunch in advance.
