System for weekly traveller to use in hotel room


I travel in my work every week. I can not bring a compact system like a Linn Classik with speakers to the hotel rooms I stay in. How have others solved this issue? I have more time to listen at the hotel in the evenings that I have when I am home over the weekends. Looking for how other have solved to get a travelling sound system that can satisfy the high end listening requirement.

www.headphone.com will solve all your issues. there is no compact and portable system works better than a nice headphone setup.
I use a Grado headphone amplifier which is relatively compact, gives reasonable battery life with a 9 volt battery and sounds very good with headphones.

Do you wish to carry CDs and a player of some sort or are you willing to use a computer and compressed formats for your listening material?

If you intend to be computer based, I would love to hear from anyone who knows if there are notebook computers available with audiophiley, line level outputs or DACs?

One other tip: I have never tried them, but a company called Monsoon made two little planar speakers for use with computers. Two speakers with a little sub were small, very cheap (<$150) and Stereophile claimed they sounded surprisingly good when listened to in nearfield.

Good luck.
Nothing makes me Happier than my iPod (www.iPod.com) running through my Headroom Supreme (http://www.headphone.com/layout.php?topicID=3&subTopicID=27&productID=0010012000) then feeding my Sennheiser HD580's (http://www.headphone.com/layout.php?topicID=3&subTopicID=26&productID=0020080580).
But If I'm on the plane, the iPod has enough juice to feed my Etymotic's (http://www.headphone.com/layout.php?topicID=3&subTopicID=26&productID=0020100000).
