A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

This quick review is done after a few hours of listening. I bought them from B&H for the decent sum of 150$. If you've done your research you'll find out that Ultrasone HPs are known for their...

I auditioned the SRH-1840 straight out of the box, and was unsatisfied with the sound, so I decided to give them a period of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite differences...

I do not think that any of the above amps can come close to the Schiit Lyr in sheer output power, 6 wats RMS, for low impedance headphones at 32ohms.

You could probably build a 2 channel B22 on a shoestring budget for $500

Just get a Dynalo. 1W of power is overkill for 99% of headphones. 6W will drive a lot of speakers.
The Dynalo is a classic circuit from the noted Dr. Gilmore and thousands have enjoyed it.
