Grado Headphones


Hi folks:
I just picked up some Grado RS 60i headphones. They sound great with my Nad integrated amp but I would also like to use them with my ipod - I hate those things you shove into your ear canals! I notice that the volume needs to be turned completely up and then the volume is still not great. What is a relatively inexpensive way to get more gain from that ipod, are there mini- headphone amps? Appreciate any thoughts,

Here's one option...but not very inexpensive...

Yeah, I read about that in Stereophile.........nothing else for maybe half that price out there......??
At least that one is small for use with ipod but I didn't want to hang a lot of money on it either.
thanks.
The Headroom company specializes in headphone amps, including ones you can carry around with your iPod. The Total Airhead or Total Bithead models might be what you need. I gave one to one of my sons and it is really not bad.

There are other small, battery-powered headphone amps available also. You may find a few names to look for if you visit head-fi.org.
