I ordered a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 880 (250 ohms version) over the weekend and was wondering which amp works best with them. So far I've read that the 880 is a little neutral and doesn't exaggerate the sound too much, which I liked (yes I'm a little tired of the exaggerated mids on my e3c's). I'm not sure if the PA2v2 will have enough juice to power the cans, but even so, I don't think I will use them. So which amp seems to fit well with the DT 880?
I also want to know more about the headphones/amp combination. Some amps are more laid back (SR-71) while others are more punchy and forward (Hornet/PA2v2). If I have a somwhat neutral cans in the DT 880, would a laid back amp like the SR-71 make the sound extremely neutral (detrimental) or would it be more of an improvement? Or would I be better off with a Hornet for the DT 880?
