Didn't think this was really music talk and not home theater, so here it is for the mods to ponder.

Anyone use an amp for their headphones? Just picked up a pair of Etymotic Research ER6i and saw than several people recommended getting one.

Any love for kvrdave?

Ask these people http://head-fi.org/
I thought about getting one before I found out how much they cost. Maybe someday, but I spent enough money on the headphones.

I found several on ebay that are homemade for around $50, and there is a Radio Shack one for around $20, but don't know enough about it.

Roto

Haha, somebody moved your cheese! Do you really have to know anything about them to avoid the Radio Shack one? There is a lot of info on headfi about the homemade ones. They have a section where they sell and trade. That'd probably be a safer bet than Ebay.

My cheese moved Yeah, I'll keep looking. I suppose I should wait for the new headphones to see if I even need them.

I doubt you would need an amp for the ER6i's.

Those are more for cans than for ear canal units.
