Thanks IpodPJ. I appreciate your input on the above amps that you feel pairs well with the HD800. From my experience with the HD650s, but not that much for the HD600, a good amp did make them shine more. I haven't had a lot of time yet with the HD800s, but I do fine that with some of the amps I tested the HD800 does shine with certain amps instead of others. I guess that can be said with any can that has a different source on the chain with the amp from my experience. Thanks again.

As far as what pairs well (that I heard with my own ears): Solid State SE: ALO Amphora (pairs decently, but on the bright side. I wouldn't pair it with a detailed source and I would only pair it with a source with a tube output, or an iPod.) Blue Circle SBH (pairs decently.) Solid State balanced Audio-gd Phoenix Balanced B22 RSA Apache (but on the warm side) Rudistor RPX-300 (pairs decently.) Tube SE Zana Deux Donald North Audio Sonett (SE version) Woo Audio WA22 Woo Audio WA6 SE Tube balanced Donald North Audio Sonett (Balanced output version) RSA B-52 (but on the warm side) |
