I need some amp recommendations for the following two headphones since I'm quite new to all this:
Grado RS1i
Sennheiser HD650
Budget is $500 per amp
The sound card I have in my computer is an HT Omega Claro
Musical Taste: Alice in Chains, Buckethead, Chevelle, Led Zeppelin, Mother Love Bone, Mudhoney, Neil Young, Nine Inch Nails, Nirvana, The Offspring, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Rage Against The Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Screaming Trees, The Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Tool, etc... Mainly rock music with some metal thrown in here and there.
On a side note, I've heard the Schiit Lyr goes quite well when partnered with the HD650s. Haven't heard too much about what fairs well with RS1is besides the Mad Ear + HD. But that might be out of my price range at the moment.
*I have not bought these two headphones just yet. I'm still in the process of debating which one I want. But I figured it wouldn't hurt to get some recommendations for amps for both of them and make my decision after I hear a few.
