Hello there.
I've tried searching the forums as best I can and can't find the answers i'm looking for. Can anybody help please?
I have an I-Phone 5s and have been listening to I-Tunes for over twelve months. A few weeks ago i decided to upgrade my stock headphone and so did the usual review site searching and bought a pair of BOSE Quiet Comfort 25's. When i plugged them in the noise cancellation was awesome but I wasn't getting anywhere near the sound quality they boasted.
I sold the BOSE and picked up a pair of AKG Y50's. I plugged them into the I-Phone and again nothing startling.
Am i getting this average sound because the source is the I-Phone itself? Should I be looking at a portable device to use with what I class as half decent headphones to get at least some of the sound quality the reviews boast? Ideally i'd be looking at a portable device that uses I-Tunes. If this isn't possible can anybody point me in the right direction. I don't have a fortune to spare but equally don't want to keep paying for these review hyped headphones if my source isn't right!
Many thanks in advance,
Grant.
