Interesting review but... ALPS volume pot on a $2000 amp? LOL!
Hope it sounds better than it looks. An ugly duckling for sure.
Honestly doubt that. But again, my Fiio E17 can drive the HE-6 too in a pinch if I have nothing else to work with. Music is music sometimes
But how wonderful to hear that it pairs very well with the new AD and LCD-X...
I agree. What does that mean by DRIVING the headphone ? my ipod nano can drive HE6, LCD2 and HD800. As long as I don't hear it loud, I connect and I hear the music, period.
To be honest, I am little tired of searching the right amp that can drive Planar and high ohm dynamic headphones, I was fooled by the SR71B portable amp that can drive LCD2/HD650 etc, and Burson 160DS can drive all HE6, LCD2, HD800. IMO absolutely NOT !, non of these amps can produce loud and clear sound IMO, especially portable amps ? forget it, you might be able to drive IEM nicely but not the headphones.
I am not willing to spend $5k+ on amps, better invest that kind of money into real estate IMO lol..
Am I the only one who is really put off about the $2000 dollar amp that comes with a $1250 optional PSU which is not really optional if you know what I mean?
It wouldn't be a Meridian if it didn't have a snob-friendly MSRP attached to it. They probably weren't happy with too many regular peasants buying the Explorer model.
