    $220 warm tube amp?

    Hey all, I'm in a bit of a pickle trying to decide what warm tube amp to get for $220. Don't really care if it's new or used, and I could go a little over. Some people said an old receiver could work, and that'd be fine with me imo   Thoughts:   - Garage1217 could fit maybe, ember too...

    $100 AMP for HE-560s?

    Hey, I'm trying to find an amp for my HE-560s. Not too picky, but it just needs to be available on Amazon and be USB. It can be a little over $100, but not much.     Thanks!

    HE-560 Ampless?

    Would be driving them off a very good motherboard, but I'll be spending all of my money on the headphones thus I will not have money for an amp. I hear they benefit from an amp, but would they still sound good for the time being? Or would it be better to get HD-700s + a good amp?
