They were 3 to 5 times more expensive than the PA2V2 and made by respected builders. That these amps failed with the 501s did not make me think they were bad amps as both worked very well with the HD580s. The amps I have owned which made the 501s sound good (to me) were a Pimeta (AD8620), a Graham Slee Solo Mk II(AD843) and my current favourite the Mcubed(AD843) by MisterX. |
To say that a pair of headphones deserve better than an amp which I do not think you have even ever heard - correct me if I am wrong - looks a little like snobbery to me. |
