I need help choosing an amp for my Denon AH D2000s

I just ordered a pair of Denon AH D2000s and now I am looking to by a portable amp. I have a $200 budget and I have come up with this list.

 

-ibasso D4

-ibasso D2

-Leckerton Audio UHA-4

 

All of these are supposed to be able to power my denons just fine but which one is the best value.

 

Oh yeah i am a little hesitant about the ibasso D4 because I heard it uses up a lot of batteries, so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

 

Thanks

-Dan

If you're looking for more bang for your buck, check out the FiiO E6, E7, or E11. Not being familiar with the amps you posted, you are looking for a portable amp right? I have an E6 right now and its pretty decent for my pair of Denon AHD2000's. I am currently waiting on a digiZoid ZO2 which I hope to be able to fullly recommend from personal experience next week. 

 

I'll be keeping close eye on this thread.

Yeah im looking for a portable amp, since I have $200 dollars to spend I was going to go for something in that price range but I will definitely check out the ZO2. Would you happen to know if the fiio E7 + E9 combo would work good with these headphones.

Well, I don't need a portable amp, I was just doing some more research and I found that d2000s work really well with tube amps, I don't know anything about tube amps.

You're in the portable amp section, as far as I am aware, their arent any portable tube amps, and based on what knowledge of tube amps I have, which is very little, I don't think it would be good, nor cheap to have a portable tube amp.

I must have confused you, i;m not looking for a portable tube amp, I was looking for a portable amp but i changed my mind. I heard the d2000s work well with tube amps. What kinds do you have.

I cant really help you out. I understand why people like them and that they are usually pretty expensive. I don't know anything about any actual brands or prices on them. Check out some of this forums sponsors for different tube amps.
