Hello All,
We recently picked up some Bose Triport ($149) headphones for my son to use with his computer, iPod and Marshall electric guitar amp.
These headphones sound absolutely awesome when used with the computer and iPod but my son says the music really sounds terrible when plugged into his guitar amp. He said the bass is lost and the whole thing sounds tinny. Are there special headphones for strict use with amps or are we missing some sort of "box" between the two? Also if there are special headphones can you all make a recommendation? Thanks

I'll pass this link onto my son to review and add some more details. The reason he's using the headphones with his electric is because my wife can't stand hearing all the distortion coming from his Fender start/Marshall amp and there are times I feel the same way as well, but I'm more open to music then she. I recently bought him a Martin J-15 acoustic which she absolutely loves hearing him play so I think some of the issues may be resolved. ; )
Anyhow, thanks for the input.
