I noticed this review of the Parasound Zamp.
This is a compact 45W/8ohm power amp (requires DAC/pre with volume control) which should provide just over 7W into 50ohms - enough to drive the HE6 very well, though probably sniffed at by the extreme high power brigade. But hey, this thing can be had for under US$300 new!
Anyway, I was curious so I bought one.
I think it sounds excellent driven from the SE out of my Grace m920.
Very quiet, with a detailed and spacious sound that allows the HE6 to demonstrate it's superior sound. Clean, clear and dynamic with deep tight bass. There is no brittle SS sound here - it sounds quite lovely actually.
The good looks and compact footprint are a real bonus too.
I think its a bit of a steal for the price.
Thank you. May I ask how you would compare it to your upgraded Khartago when driving the HE-6?
