    Blu ray and headphone amps

    I've probably come across wrong. I am genuinely pleased with what I have now at the moment. I do intend to get speakers e.t.c though not quite yet. The cinema sound comment was more about the overall setup. I realise what I have is not the same as a cinema and was more tongue-in-cheek though...

Then replace the headphones with open backed ones as suggested as all of this in one go is starting...

    Blu ray and headphone amps

    I am thinking of getting a Projector for home cinema use. At the moment though I live in a flat and to avoid annoying the neighbours too much I thought I'd give headphones a go and leave the amp and speakers until later. I have the following already: Blu ray player: Panasonic DMP BD-55...
