Hey guys,
I am on the hunt for a portable amp to go along with my Westone 3.
I will also get some headphones like the Ultrasone 750 or the DT 770/80 version so versatility is really important. I keep hearing that the new RSA SR-71A can drive not only drive demanding headphone like the HD 650 but IEMs at ease.
I mainly listen to electronica (techno, trance, dance, house) and rock.
I am wondering if the RSA amp is too much for what I need. I am looking for a really punchy but tight bass and I heard Ray's amps does this well. Even though many people recommend cold and bright sound signature for electronica, I really would prefer a warmer sound because my ears are super sensitive to treble.
The majority of my music files are 320kbps mp3 and they go as low as 128kbps. A good number of my music are apple lossless also.
They will be mostly used at home moving around with me.
I do not really care about battery life as long as they would last around 4 or 5 at least during each use.
Budget is $500 or less...Thanks
