DT880 & HD600, both are high impedance, why Solid State. Woo, MapleTree Audio. Question for ya, what is the difference between buying a tube amp amp and not rolling and buying SS? Nothing.

I would prefer SS amp (no time for tube hunting) with sonic performance better or similar to M3+S11. Bass is at less priority. Smooth mid/high, clarity, transparency, soundstage/imaging, and details are much more desired. Music genres are female vocal, classical, soundtrack, and new age. The combo of Audiosector NOS DAC + Arietta already provides great enjoyment to me. I would appreciate your suggestion with budget < $800. (More is OK, but I am not sure if that makes sense with my current DACs) |

I'm trying to find an SS amp to mate with my modded Denon D2000 which could use a healthy dose of warmth in the midrange region. I'm initially thinking along the line of the KICAS Caliente but I'll most probably push up my budget a bit so I can really feel the difference. |
