I thumbs up that headphone amp, but I've never used Sennheisers before. This is going to be a question more for s_k, as I'm more into the whole "I'm comfortable with my setup" thing.

I don't use a headphone amp, and I do a lot of mixing with a 99 dollar pair of JVC's. I have no complaints. (and it's not because I'm not an "audiophile"... I notice the limitations, but I'm just used to working around them.)

So what are you planning on using them for, general listening?

[debaserr]

general listening and I may start messing around with FL studio. I figure this setup should last a while, until I want an amp or something down the line.

Having an iPhone is a bit of a pain in the dick if you don't want to pay £1 for a 30 second clip of a song.

I downloaded AVS audio converter so I could convert my existing songs to ringtones for it. But it leaves a voice stamp which is no good. Does anyone know of anything that I can convert music to this "RING" format so I can happily have someone phone me without "AVS music" being said first?

So I downloaded this audacity site and been messing around with laying some tracks down but i cant figure out how im going to be able to post what ive done if i wanted. I downloaded a contverter to try switch the files over to mp3 but that didnt work. Course I could have been doing it wrong but does anyone know the steps to take to get this done? Computer savvy I am not

You should be able to export the song, when it's finished, as an mp3.

Whenever I try to export the it says the site does not ecport Mp3 files directly. It says you have to download the Mp3 encoder called LAME which i did but its not working either or im not doing something right.

Ah, well then if you can only export as WAV, then yea you'll want an audio converter. You should be able to find plenty free ones around the web. Free Audio Converter: free audio converting software

Just make sure you're converting from WAV (if that's what you export) to MP3 with the bitrate you want. There may be some settings in Audacity that you may need to attend to first, though. You may want to read the help file. I don't use Audacity, so I don't know off hand.
