If the speaker amp is under 150 wpc, the adapter shouldnt be necessary, but if you were planning something with higher wattage, then yes, absolutely.

A cable which terminates with either the banana plugs (for the speaker taps) is said to be best, but using the 1/4 output of the speaker amp should do too.

I am sure the Mini-X is a sure bet. If you want to try what speaker amps are like but want something affordable yet very good, try the Mini and see how you like it. You can always upgrade to a higher wattage amp if you like it. Its a good start definitely :)

 

Hope this helps!

Also you dont need an adapter for it as it is "only" 50 wpc

Im listening to Black Pearl headphone amp to my HE5LE and I really done have pressure to change it in that case. I will build clone of HA5000 just for cusriosity and fun to see what are main differences but BP makes great job especially in terms of great, nonfatiguing, non cut, airy highs.

Its also very compact one:

hey zibra could you just stop posting links to your friend's shop ?

he is from Poland (I guess he hid his location on purpose) and the shop too - this is quite pathetic actually (are you taking some profits ? have some manners man)

please listen to some high quality, powerful amp for he5le and quit that DIY junk

Hey man. My post is 1 month old. You are also from Poland as I see. I wouldnt expect anyone just jealous person to make such statement. Probably I know you from polish forums right? I compared it to WA6 SE and my friend compare it to Leben CS300. I also tried speaker outputs from some Xindak amps. I will be also trying other amps in future but your comment is just more pathetic that my opinion.

Instead of making such ridiculous statements please share your knowledge - which amps you listened to?
