I have some closed-back headphones that have poor sound. Is it possible to improve the sound of the headphones by installing additional speakers?

How much better can the sound of the headphones be if the cups are covered with soundproofing tape?

If your headphones are crappy, a better source won't really help. It's not an or here, headphones make most of the difference. Only decent headphones will appreciably benefit from a good source.

MP3 isn't ideal but, unless you have rather good headphones, 320kbit/s MP3 is pretty damn near transparent.
