Hope this is in the right area, I'm sure this has been covered before however i could not find it. So here goes   I'm coming from a high end home analog set-up using edgarhorn speakers and set amplification, bi-amped with solid state on the bass. All my source was analog or tubed CD players, I...

Hey guys, I am hoping you can help me spend my money :)   I'm using a pair of HD-650 at home, connected to a Audio-GD Compass connected to my desktop.  I've been using the Compass for a few years now and even if it wasn't presenting some hardware issues, which it is, I want to try a tube...

Hi,   I got a DT880 and HD600 for classical music only. And I am considering an AMP for about $800 (500 to 1000,cheaper will be appreciated).   Looking through several amp:   Little Dot VI (balanced output is attractive)   SPL auditor (a little expensive)   beyer A1 (heard it...

Hi, i decided to get my first heaphone amp. I ordered this one http://www.audiologica.co.uk/grahamsleesolo.htmlgclid=CPODiPHgr7ICFYYNfAod3hcAVw - graham slee solo intro srg green mk 2. Site mentioned that it is new updated model. But later i discovered that there are two another models. Graham...

Hi,   I have about $250USD budgeted for a pair of full size headphones for home use.   I have the Graham Slee Amp Solo SRGII with the Power Supply    I currently use an old pair of Sennheiser 580 Precison cans, however the headband pad foam are reduced to nothing, and  they are...

I can't decide between the V-Moda M80, AKG K550 and the Pioneer 591. Not stocked locally at B&M (brick & mortar, not Bowel & Movement) stores so I have to take a chance and order online and prefer not to have to return something and try again.   I have been intrigued by all three and wonder...

Hey, guys.   Sorry for me asking, if you have ever compared both Solo Green and Solo PSU1. What's the difference anyway? I just wanna know if the price can be justified, and if it's better to upgrade directly to Solo Ultra linear or any other amps around the price range.   Btw, my...

Hi,   I purchased a set last week with a HeadRoom Micro Amp.  I have a very good DAC in my audio interface (RME Baby Face) which is hooked to my iMac via USB 2.0.  I am considering returning my Micro Amp and replacing it with a "better" amp. By better I am seeking a transparent, neutral...

I would just like to provide some impressions about the Graham Slee Novo headphone amplifier. I hesitate to call this a review for one simple reason; in my opinion it is impossible to review just the Novo as I am really describing everything in the audio chain. let's face it, when we provide...

Hi guys I hv been scouring thru head fi to get advice on what sorta DAC to match with a Graham Slee Solo and a HD650. I listen to mostly rock, acid jazz, alternative and soul. Something warm with a fat bass, not boomy though. My source is a PC with lossless files mostly. I will list a few DACs...

Hey guys,   Asked a similar question in the PC audio section, but I don't think I'll get too much out of there in regards to a variety of opinions (Although what I did get was good!)   I currently own HD595s. Very good headphones, I love the sound they give out. However, I want to...

I've got the GS SRGII with the green PSU. Since the GS doesn't have any power on/off button, is it bad if I plug in the power core all the time, does it consume a lot of power?   Thanks!

I had the GS Solo (which version, I am unsure of) and I later purchased the T1 Frankly speaking, I am not a fan of this combination... I am a bit broke at the moment (recently purchased T70P) My budget being somewhere between 600-1000. So rather than upgrading my amp I thought I would...

http://www.whathifi.com/review/fidelity-audio-hpa-100   Has anyone heard this amp?   If so, how does it compare in sonic signature to tried and true favourites such as the Lehmann Black Cube, the Graham Slee Solo...etc...   The review seemed to suggest that the HPA-100 is slightly on...

Hi, UK newbie here. I have some new hd 598s which I am using with a Gatorised Beresford Caiman DAC + Headphone amp, and, when on the move, with an iPod + Fii0 e7. Would you advise: A matrix m amp, a fii0 E9,, or a NJC Monitor 2 amp to pair? I have also been looking at the kit scene too, e.g...

I'd like to compile a list of the amps people are using with the W5000. Please post the best-matching amps for the W5000 that you own or have extensive experience with. If you use multiple amps, please limit your post to the best one, or the top two if you feel they are at comparable level. I...

I had to start a new thread... since... not many have heard about this new amp... at a new price. Since Mrarroyo has "brought me up to speed"... the Solo thread needs to be resurrected... ... in the light of the GS Solo SRG, which is "now on sale." Solo SRG Headphone Amplifier: Solo...

Hi guys, Not sure which of these to get. Are there any appreciable differences in sound quality between the two? And if there are, is it worth paying almost twice as much for the updated version (over the Pro's) for them? Also, I'm pretty confused as to the whole Beyerdynamic timeline -...

hi, anyone know which one would be better for sennheiser hd 650's? or anyone know any others that may be better in this price range?

This is assuming a minimum level of quality from all components in the chain ie. headphones in the hd650/k702 price range, amps in the graham slee solo/lehmann black cube price range and dac's in the dac1/da10 price range and mp3's from 320kbps to lossless.   Asumming this quality level -...

Hi,   Does anyone else own this amp and if so, would you say it is worth purchasing the PSU1 for it? Currently, I just have the basic power supply it comes supplied with.   £160 seems like a lot of monies for a power supply so I'm a bit reluctant if the gains are subtle at best.   Thanks

Hi Guys,    Curious about something ...    After reading many reviews and understanding the concept, I'm totally sold on the Algorhythm Solo.   However, I'm trying to decide which amp to get -- I'm considering either the SR-71B or the Rx Mk2.    The way I see it ...    SR-71B...

Because of changed living conditions, I will have to make use of my old, but hardly used headphones again. They are AKG K400's They will be used with my hi-fi set: record player, cd player, radio-tuner, cassettedeck and integrated amp. The amp (Sonneteer) has no possibility to connect...

Suggestions...

Yup exactly what the title says! Just wanna know if anyone has any experience with both amps, preferably with the HD650's. Thanks!
