i think u should try the amps urself be4 u buy. try n see if u can notice any significant improvement. btw, thedoctor is selling a portable amp for RM300. quite an expensive investment, it is class A, so should b better than the class AB. but again, if u cant hear the difference between class AB and class A, no point spending the extra for the latter. the best thing is thedoctor is giving a 14-day money back guarantee. meaning if u ar not satisfied, don notice any difference, u can giv it back to him n he wil giv u full refund.

i seriously believe HP1000 is underpowered when unamped. it is very difficult to drive. so i think amping it wil improve the sound a lot.

for ext soundcard, PSC805 is a nice n cheap 1. or u can try Audigy NX - ext version of Audigy2 ZS. but buying an amp+soundcard will cost u quite alot. if money is not ur prob, then u can go ahead... haha

how much is PSC805?
i think i have no more than rm250
huhu..
broke already.

yea half possesed coz i got to hear the music louder and block some outside noise.

but thats about it.
my place is very noisy..so..being able to listen to the song without any noise is heaven.

Louder = yes
Clearer = depends on your source setup and your listening environment and finally your ears.

If you say HP1000 not very much different with Logitech I guess you are not really into audiophile yet.

THe best album to start with is getting a nice recording audiophile album. Highly recommend is FIM super sound volume 1 & 2.

heh .. where to get FIM eh abg Davis.

FIM super sound is very rare in auckland too... as wat i hav said... auckland.... haih.....

PSC805 is RM210 if u buy from lgs bulk. but i donno wil he open the bulk again. or u can get a 2nd hand 1 for RM190 in garage sales section. DAViS is selling it at RM270

for amp, there ar plenty of cheap 1 around. but i don really know about their difference in performance. there ar PA2V2 for RM222, mini-eph RM120, n others like edifier tat u can buy outside. if u don mind buying DIY 1, then there ar CMOY RM80, class AB RM130 from Eokboy, portable amp RM300 from thedoctor. (should i get advertising fee from these sellers?? haha....)

since u r in a tight budget, i think u should buy an amp 1st. jus my humble opinion. u can try to ask the sifus here

damn...
and this is without any PAv2v!

wonder how it'll sound like when i buy one.

anyways..to 'bring out the best' of my can,
shud i get a soundcard(for my lappy..as i usually listen to songs from it) OR shud i get a an amplifier?


*
with any amp, it'l lsurely sounds clearly lady...

and if u really wish to bring out the best of any headphones, try this:

1. use only LOSSLESS AUDIO SOURCE - that means 50mb for a 5 min song in flac, ape or whatever lossless audio codec u like

cost? 1 album will typically eat 600+mb of hdd space

2. a EMU1616m Micro Dock ext sound card (notice that this IS NOT 1212 or 1818)

cost: around 1,500+ (not yet confirmed by Creative Singapore)

3. grado sr-1

cost: the best price i've gotten is SGD 1,050 after haggling so much with gabriel and his towkay (wilson) from Jaben Network in adelphi, singapore

the lossless audio source doesn't eat your wallet, at least


significant improvement can be noticed immediately with a headphone upgrade

then a good amplifier will help

only then you focus on your audio source and DSP

and when u have upgraded your DSP, ur headphone becomes the bottleneck, and u upgrade to better heaphones

and then the amp is obsolete, then u have to find a better amp

and the vicious cycle continues... wink.gif


i tell you, being an audiophile is like selling your soul to the devil

Heh. I should thank supazta for asking that question. Was wondering myself on what I should get tongue.gif

Waiting for Eokboy to finish his (soon to be mine!) Class AB. No idea how well it'll make my 895 sound. I'm no where near audiophile level though, so not sure if I'd be in heaven or not tongue.gif But as it is, I'm loving the 895! biggrin.gif

She should first work on the source smile.gif If she plays through those integrated sound card of her laptop, it surely doesn't have the power to drive HP1000.

Most improvement : buy a USB soundcard (PSC805) + headamp
Significant improvement : buy a headamp
So-so improvement : buy a USB soundcard (PSC805)

I was using HP895 + thedoctor's Sijosae headamp class AB too. And yes, it will surely give you good improvements. I was planning to write a full review biggrin.gif (in a noob way) after I get everything run in for a while.. I only used the amp for less than 8 hours so far...
