Can i use an amp for my Beats Solo HD's? If can any recommendations? I'm using iPhone or Macbook as my source.

So would a solo hd need an amp? Or just the built-in iphone is enough?

quote from headphonia..
taken from here..
Headfonia $100 amp shootout

after so many amps by fiio, they cant even defeat a basic cmoy amp?

solo hd is built for portable rig such as ipod/iphone. so actually it doesnot need an amp to push it. else if you want to have a lil change on the sound signature, then you can couple it with an amp. but i doubt you can hear the change of sound signature, because beats solo hd is not made for details/clarity sound sig, just for fun listening.

or... if you want to boost the bass, then amp will help you with bass control.

for me, it is not worth to get an amp for solo hd, because it easily driven by any portable audio player. unless you get audiophile grade headphone to couple the amp.

actually it is not useless. if you want extra bass for ur solo, amp with bass boost can help you to get that.

almost all amp can bass boost such as fiio e11, ordnance, etc... but if you think the bass is enough then just dont waste ur money to get an amp because it just change lil of the sound sig for solo.

i think the better question is - what is it you want to change with the current audio ? which part you wanna boost? then you can start looking for recommendations.

Hi, looking to get a desktop amp for my beyer dt770 pro 250ohm.

What amps would you guys recommend? Preferably something < RM800 and also something with a warmer sound signature as currently i find the beyers a tad too bright.

Thanks

interesting.. didnt know dt770 being bright.

Need a recommendation for an amp to pair with my DT880/250. No real budget for now but in the range of RM500-1000, could spend a little bit more I guess. What I really want is an amp to improve DT880 recessed mids. Preferably solid state (tubes make my room go HOT).

And oh, it must be a desktop amp. Not interested in portables.

FiiO E7 + E9 combo.

Just wondering, how would LittleDot MKiii sound on a dt880 and ms2?

That combo is pretty neutral sounding and won't improve DT880s midrange.

If the littledot mk3 is anywhere similar to the littledot 2++, it won't do the ms2 justice IMHO. When I had them paired up last time, the ld2++ just killed whatever was nice about the ms2, and it sounded like a generic headphone under a pillow.

Hav you actually tried it It actually does improve the mids

Where are you located

Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me, what do you all think about BEAT Monster headphone?

I did not but,


I'd take his words over yours.

The fact remains you had yet to try it, if you do come to Bukit Bintang area with your sources and your Beyer, willing to arrange for you to have a go at it

The fact is, have u actually tried the pairing of DT880 and E7+E9 urself? Or were u simply recommending just because u're selling them? lol.

I have tested Solo that came with HP Envy Beat Edition... if you talking about bass, I think there is no need for amp, the bass is already to high and you can feel the speaker pumping your eardrums already. Really can feel the driver vibrate with bass. I may call it dancing headphone.

I think if you listening to hip hop, dance, trance (and alike), Beat really a good choice. For rock and pop... I did try the Solo... sound a little muddy.

Anyway, you should know that Beat was made by Dr. Dre and for sure the sound will follow his taste.

hi all, need recommendations for best amp or dac+amp that costs less rm250..source is my notebook or mp3 player, wanna pair with my 2.0 speaker or yuin pk3..
any idea?
