I'm still new to the audiophile world and I need some help picking out an amplifier for my CD5001 - any advice is much appreciated
Right now I have:
Marantz CD5001 -> HD595
PC -> Chaintech AV710 -> CMOY -> HD595
My PC setup currently sounds a lot better than my CD player on its own, but I can't use my PC all the time so I need to improve the sound on my CD player. I'm guessing an amplifier will help my CD player outperform my PC, but I don't know which amplifier to get. I'd like to spend less than $250 and I've heard great things about the Little Dot MK III, but what other options do I have?
On a side note: how exactly does an amplifier increase sound quality? I've heard that it increases both the voltage and amperage to provide more power to the headphones, but is this true?
