100+ Head-Fier
hi guys, new member and fairly new headphone enthusiast. I’m looking for a headphone amp used to drive planar headphones, currently have the hifiman He400i and will be grabbing a set of he560 in the next few week. My budget for the amp is about 800$ I could go a bit more but prefer not to. Requirements: power(I believe he560 requires something like 2watts at 45ohms) and good sound. Atm I’m leaning towards the schiit lyr3 with the ak4490 dac unit and Tung-sol/lisst solid state tube combo. This amp/dac will most likely be end game for me so I do like the ability to easily convert the lyr 3 from tube to pure ss.
Thanks in advanced for any recommendations, I appreciate it.
