Just decided to pull the trigger on a new pair of RS2e to tide me over with the sale of my HD800 and TOTL amp that I had to sell. Also got in on the second run of the Fostex TH-X00, but the expected delivery is May, and don't want to be without a decent headphone for that long.
And secondly, I wanted a headphone that's "house portable" since my main rig is chained to my desktop. I can always just hook this up to my smartphone if I want to listen casually elsewhere in the house, I figure.
Does anyone here use a Valhalla 2 with their Grados? I got it for my HD800 which I no longer have, but the output impedance is reasonably low for an OTL amp, and the high efficiency shouldn't demand too much current from the amp. Might warm them up nicely too.
I've been an HD800 guy for awhile now, having been through a few flagships, but this will be my first Grado since my 225i, so we'll see how it goes.
Yeah the Valhalla will work just fine with your Grado's.
