Hi all !
 
Need some recommendations for a AMP that will drive my dt 880 600ohm as close to their potentional for less than 200$
 
I have looked into the little dot mk III and the fiio E9. Wich one do you guys think would sound better, and would any of them bottleneck the headphones much? Like in microdetails and power ?

You can get low cost single tube headphone amplifiers off eBay, ships from China, takes 10 days.
Prices start at $45, better ones start at around $75, really nice one (Indeed G3) is $120.

Little Dot tube amps pair well with the 880s.

I went for the little dot mk iii with 

[size=small]Hytron JHY 6AK5 and the  Sylvania GB-5654 tubes. [/size]

Is it worth replacing the power tubes ?

Anyone know power tube models that are compatible ?
