We All Start Somewhere
Hi All
Just ordered one of the new Little Dot Mk IV SE tube headphone amps.
This new amp is getting good reviews and is supposed to have extraordinary soundstage and imaging. I have never had a headphone amp before. This is also my first experience with tubes so I am hoping this amp will give me a taste of what a tube system can sound like.
Now I need some advice on headphones.
I have not had headphones since the early 80's so I have no idea what to look for now, Open, closed, etc
I listen to all kinds of music depending on the mood, but primarily classic rock.
I would like to spend about $250 - $300 but willing to go up to about $400 if the bang for the buck is there.
I want something I can wear with comfort in an easy chair and just get lost in the music while enjoying the soundstage and imaging this tube amp promises.
I work nights now and sometimes I want to listen to music when I get home. The weather has gotten a lot warmer lately in So. Cal so I need the windows open to cool the house down. The neighbors do not appreciate my regular fine listening setup at midnight like I do, hence the need for headphones.
How about some comments or suggestions.
