Hey I'm specifically looking for a setup to be built around the Ultrasone Proline 2500 cans that I now plan on buying.
It will be a home setup only, no need for portability. My source will be either Toslink or USB, so I'll need a DAC, and then a headphone amp with good synergy with the cans.
I have done a lot of research on this in these forums and have only found one good recommendation for a home amp: the Heed CanAmp. If I could, I would like to spend less money than that. I would obviously need a $150 DAC at least to go with the CanAmp which would make my total around $500 if I'm lucky. I'd rather cap out the price at $400 for both the amp and dac.
I read most of the giant ultrasone thread to see if I could get any insight, and everyone in there with ED9s and 2500s and 750s are using them with WAYY more expensive equipment than I can afford!
So do you guys have any recommendations for me?
Thank you.
