It will improve the sound a little but all I'm getting at is that it's not worth plowing loads of money into a better source for them in the hope of getting more bass. I tried my HD555 with my MiniMAX amp and they were still fairly bass light.

They are a great pair of cans though

I've heard they get a LOT better once they've been burned in for ~100 hours.
I probably haven't put 100 hours into them yet but coming up on maybe 50 soon. Haven't heard much of a difference besides a little smoother in the higher ranges.
