Hello head-fiers, I've been stalking these forums for a long time but decided to buy a decent pair of headphones just now. So I finally feel comfortable posting here.
I've researched a lot about amps for the DT990/250 but can't decide on what to get since my money is limited and I don't live at the US, so trying them and returning is not much of an option. The max I'm willing to spend is $200USD. I don't know much about solid state vs tube amps but read a lot that the DT 990 sound much better with tube amps.
The amps I'm interested so far are the Schiit Magni/Modi combo, the O2, the Little Dot MKIII and the Schiit Valhalla (it kinda streches my budget by a lot but I REALLY like the looks of the schiits), theres the Schiit Asgard too but some people said that it doesnt synergize too well with the DTs.
Im thinking on buying a pair of HD650s down the road (like 1-2 years from now?) and really insterested in the grado's so an amp that can go well with all of these would be awesome. (Damn why did I enter this kind of hobby).
I don't know if this is relevant but I mainly listen to Post Rock, Classical, Metal, and some Electronic and I game a lot (I like having a nice soundstage for gaming).
And another question is: Are those cheap bravo/indeed chinese single tube amps on ebay any good?
