Hello Everyone, I'm a Headfi newbie, Audiogon oldtimer with an amp question for you all. I'm trying to decide on an amp. On the phones, I listen to classic rock and female vocals mostly. Looking for a high quality keeper, not interim, tube amp to drive Senn. 650s w/ Cardas cable. Source is Meridian 508.20.
Amp must be well balanced to to bottom, must have good dynamic bass and smooth reasonably extended highs. Mids must be rich and full with some bloom. I would be using NOS tubes in the HP4 & Supra. Those of you intimately familiar with the Supra: How far would you take the upgrades, or which of the numerous possible upgrades are the most important in achieving the above goals?? I know that the HP4 is quite a bit more expensive than the Supra, but I just want a heads up comparison of the two units.
Thanks, in advance, for your input.
