Would you say the EF600 is a warmer sounding amp?
As someone who's owned the Diana V2/Phi and currently has the HE1000 SE/Arya SE: consider the XI Audio Broadway.

Most Diana owners have probably considered it but it's underrated for Hifiman cans. It sound great and theres some in the classifieds for half off.

PS I voted for Hifiman.

That was a easy vote. I'd second the Ef600. Ef600 has more detail then my ef400, but the ef400 is warmer. They are both R2r dacs, r2r dacs are usually known for being warm sounding

Appreciate the recs! I just tried the Diana V2 and HE1000SE today and I have to say I was blown away by the latter. Definitely considering buying them soon so I'll try to test with the EF600 and see how they pair.
