I don't want anything sterile or flat sounding. I want it to be a fun sounding amp.

The GS Solo will complement the darker sound of the HD650s very well - sounds great with the HD580/600s.
And... the DV332 does also.
I would guess the the WA6 + upgrades will also... but... the Solo will be easier to maintain (no tubes) - but... it sounds as if it has tubes.
