Hi everyone,
I am currently planning my next upgrade, and am looking into going all tube. At the moment I am running a Little Dot I+ into my RS1i/325is. Essentially, i have read mixed things about running a OTL amp into low impedance cans like Grados. Then again, i have read of people finding great synergy with grados and amps like the earmax pro/LD MKIII/LD MK IV/ Etc.
I realise, on paper, that OTL designs like these are perhaps better at High impedance cans which aren't as reliant on current supply.
Anyhow, I have my eye on getting something like an LD MKIV SE as i can then look into getting a high impedance can further down the line. Any people have much experience with running this type of amp with a grado? Am i barking up the wrong tree? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
