Hi everybody. I am looking for some advice from anybody who has heard these 2 Amplifiers in a side by side comparison, possibly with higher end Grado headphones. I know through research in Britain the Graham Slee Solo range are said to work really well with the GS1000i's. Regards Danny.- gooner26

Has anyone listened to the PS1000's with a Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear?
