There are lots of resources on the internet, but you should absolutely listen to them before you buy. Comfort is a big determinant as well as the expected sound quality. Headphones can also be more revealing so I would give a long listen if possible to make sure the amp has a sound you can live with. Here are a couple of good resources http://www.headphone.com/ and http://head-fi.org/
Looking for headphones, any suggestions?
As i will soon be going to college i think a good headphone system might be in order. My budget is in the $700 range for a headphones/amp combo. I listen to any type of music,from classical to jazz to rock and heavy metal. I've looked at antique sound lab's HB1 or MG DT OTL MKII for the amp (i like the idea of getting some tubes, and a headphone amp is the cheap way to do it), and senheiser 650/600's or AKG K701's for the headphones themselves. I'm open to any and all suggestions however, I could even go for a solid state amp if there's just an amazing one out there, but tubes jsut seem cooler (talk about a subjective term...) Thanks in advance for the help,
