I work a lot overseas and use my headphones (Beyerdynamic 770) plugged into 2 small Heathkit AA18 mono amps. The amps are fed with a compact disc player SSanyo). I use a 100 watt 110-220v transformer to power the amps and alkaline rechargeable batteries for the CD player. I also pack a battery charger. Works great and is fairly compact. I suppose that a battery operated headphone amp might work, but I think that the 600 headphones that you are talking about need more power.
What audio equipment should I take to Kirkuk, Iraq
Guys,
I may be sent on assignment to Kirkuk, Iraq. What audio equipment should I take with me - no wise cracks please, I have enough worries about this already. For obvious reasons, it has to be portable, play CDs, and of high enough quality to sate my analog/vinyl loving ears. I have the Sennheiser 600 headphones and an ASL OTL headphone but I am not sure whether the amp will work there. I also have a Radio Shack 3400 which has quit working so are there suggestions for a portable CD player with which I can use my Sennheisers.
Thanks
