Top iPad Products & Accessories
The Apple iPad, as the world now knows, delivers ultra-lightweight wireless mobility and digital entertainment on-the-fly. Techies and non techies alike are drawn to the cutting-edge touch pad and slim ergonomics as well as the multitude of apps available for this fun and easy-to-use device. Read on for our recommendations for the best headphones and iPad accessories.
Of course for HeadRoom, we’re most concerned with using the iPad as an audio source. So how does it 
perform with headphones? Folks enjoying their iPad with quality stereo headset-mic arrays like Monster Beats headphones or Klipsch earphones or with fashion-forward cans like Urbanears will find these models nicely mate with the iPad and will be adequately driven.For music mavens wanting headphones that rival the iPad’s cutting-edge design, the beyerdynamic T50p fits the bill as premium engineered portable headphone with stunning looks and superb sound quality. For Bluetooth afficionados, the Sennheiser ‘MM’ headphone series, such as the MM450 model, offer some great Bluetooth-based options for wireless iPad listening.
Nevertheless, there’s no question that even with excellent music files, a dedicated D-A processor/headphone amp remains essential for upgrading the iPad’s sound quality when using master-level ‘reference’ headphones. To do this, you will need the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit, which works wonderfully with our HeadRoom DACs and amp/DACs, like our Total BitHead or even our top-of-the-line Portable Desktop Amp/DAC. With the camera kit attached, the iPad exports a true digital audio signal through the kit’s built-in USB port that’s ready for D-A processing and even high-end upsampling via any HeadRoom DAC. This vastly improves the iPad’s sound quality, making it viable as the center of a headphone audiophile's mobile music collection.
