Hoping to find a $150 amp that will last me many years and many headphones.
I’m not trying to chase that last 10% of performance. I’m not looking for analyticity or wanting to pick out every nuance and detail. I am looking for a liquid smooth and refined sound.
Prefer a portable amp, but it’s definitely not a deal breaker. The headphones will be the HD650, possibly followed (in a year or two) by the LCD-2/X, PM-1/2, or some HiFiMANs.
Current contenders: Cayin C5 and Magni 2 Uber.
