I’m looking for a loud, warming solution for my HD800S. I like their sound, but do not like how bright they are, especially at louder volumes. Is there such a tube amp for about $650 or less that would pair nicely with HD800S? (Cambridge DACMagic 200M as DAC)

Sorry to go off piste but the best thing you could do is find another headphone, the HD800 are a great headphone but one track you listen too is sublime and the next track can sound downright awful, it is a very genre specific headphone which is a shame because it is so comfortable

Eufonika H5 KPCU is an excellent under $600 choice for the HD800. Check the HF thread here.

H5 is a wonderful way to enjoy tube rolling while rolling down the path to financial ruin. :sweat_smile:
…. the vacuum performs osmosis: from the tube 🙂 to the wallet 🥺
