I am interested in purchasing the AblePlanet NC600 set of headphones. They seem to be the highest quality set of headphones out there with the best quality for what your paying.
These in many ways will be only for use with my computer.. However, I have grown a bit tired of my ear buds (generic offbrand) I bought for my N810 and Ipod. (ipod is now mostly for car use).
My questions stem from the fact I have little knowledge other than what I have read recently about audio/mp3 stuff.
A. is it true that with higher quality headphones the quality in mp3 files become more pronounced? I have read that the better the headphones you have the more you realize your mp3's are horrible quality.
B.I like my music relatively loud.. and I feel like I already have bad hearing. If I get the set of headphones which cover my ears as opposed to the ipod style ear buds will this be better for my hearing?
C. Are the AblePlanet NC600 headphones "audiophile" worthy? and if they are will the N810 be able to play high enough quality files higher quality headphones won't sound like total garbage?
I am not an audiophile I hope to not become one. However, If I can really head the music more clearly and more pronounced with a better set of headphones and if I can make the music "sound louder" without really being louder and keep my hearing in better condition then I would be glad to drop 50$ on the headphones.
However, if its honestly not gunna help either way then I'll just save my money.
I am posting hear because the N810 is my media player and I need to know how it will work on scale compared to the Headphones. And I want to know if the Headphones are really high quality.
Thanks for the help and sorry if I rambled a bit.
