Hello all!
I will be going to college soon and I would like to have a good audio setup when I'm there. So I am in the market for a nice pair of headphones - something under 125 (i'd like to save some money for books at least
).
SQ is most important to me; i enjoy punchy bass and detailed/precise highs. Isolation comes next in importance. Then comfort.
I have amps around for use: a 75% complete PPAv2, a MINT, and an empty millet hybrid board (which i will build if i get cans that work well with it). I intend to play music off my laptop (should I consider getting/DIYing a separate DAC?)
What are the best options, in my circumstances?
All posts appreciated!
PS - I know this is not befitting to the forum section, but I'm also seeking advice on speaker fed audio. I found an old pair of infinity 2000.1 bookshelf speakers. I've no idea how good they are, so does anyone know? And if they're worth using, what kind of amp should i use with them? If anyone has any input on this id love to read it.
