Schiit Lyr/Woo Audio 3 with DT880/600
Hi everyone, I am looking for an amp for my DT880/600ohm. I've been searching forums for answer for days and even tried these amps out. But I still don't have a solid answer. Lyr has a clearer sound for orchestral works. The treble, mid and bass seem lined-up well. I don't hear...- wynton5364

Need amp for DT 990 PRO 250 Ohm and possibly HE-400
Hey guys, so I was looking at two possible amps the Hifiman HF2A or the Bellari HA540. My budget is about $300 CAD. I own some M50's and some hd558's, and I know the m50's won't benefit much from an amp but i want one for the 558's. The amp has to be able to power the Dt 990 PRO 250 ohms well...- SixthFall

How does the Burson HA-160 do with AKG K702 phones?
Right now, I am powering my well-broken-in K702s with a Headroom MicroAmp. I'm pretty satisfied with the sound (but the bass extension seems limited) and the comfort of the headphones, which I use only for classical music. I've read some good reviews of the Burson amp.

WA6 has a low frequency hum on the left side, no matter what tubes are in it.
Switched left and right tubes, replaced rectifier with a totally different model, same result. When the WA6 is initially powered on, there's a loud hum/buzz on the left side, that drops off sharply after a few seconds, but when I turn off the amp, it's noticeable that there was still some hum...- TheMarchingMule
