So this is my first post here on Head-Fi, but I have been a lurker for quite some time now. Anyways, about two months ago I took a plunge and bought my first "serious" setup, which consisted of the Beyerdynamic DT 990 600 ohm version and an Audinst HUD-MX1.
Thus far, I have been happy with the setup, but of course I now feel the need to upgrade. So, recently, I have been looking at several headphone amps, but there are so many options, and I really can't make up my mind. I've mostly considered tube amps, such as the Bottlehead Crack, Darkvoice 336SE, and the Little Head amps. The most important factor for me right now is that my DT 990's are lacking in mids, and so I would like to know which of these would help the most in that department. I would also like for the amp to widen the soundstage. I'm open to suggestions for different amps, as long as they fall within my budget of course.
I have also considered just using the money to buy a different pair of headphones to allow me to enjoy another spectrum of music. As of right now, I was considering the HD 598, which I've heard has great mids and an amazing soundstage, but I cannot make up my mind.
Well thanks in advance for your feedback, and hopefully this will stop my need to upgrade, or at least prevent it from coming for a while.
