    DIY nalang.
    daming designs sa net.
    di ko nga na-ma-maximize yung senn 497 ko eh, kasi walang amp.

    DIY? hmm pano yun? wala akong alam sa electronics he he he.

    balak ko kasing palitan ng HD555 at least yung 497 ko pag may extra akong pera hehe, hindi kasi gaanong comfortable yung 497 sa mga tenga ko pag matagal akong nakikinig... or pag suot ko salamin ko hehe.

    HD590 yung gusto ko dati.
    kasi circumaural na siya, hindi supra-aural like the 495/497.

    pero 495/497 na yung pinaka-top end na pwedeng gamiting WITHOUT headphone amplifiers. anything higher than that, tapos wala kang amp, di mo na magagamit yung extra sound quality niya.

    madaming design sa net. or bumili ka sa ebay, merong nag-a-assemble tapos binebenta sa ebay.

    magkano ba budget mo? I've got a Gilmore Lite for my Audio Technica ATH-A900, although di talaga kailangan yung amp for my cans coz they are low impedance phones. the amp did help on tightening the bass, the soundstage is much bigger and the mids is more apparent now.

    the ones you see on Ebay are mostly CMOY amps, which are very good starter amps. but if you're looking for more power, then I suggest visiting this site: www.headfi.org for more info.

    exactly right! the name escaped me there. the Chu Moy (CMOY) amps are very good for the price. you can assemble them yourself too, but i'm an electrical engineer by training and i'll pass... nasa $50-plus lang naman yata sa ebay eh.
