What are the significant differences between those 3 amplifiers besides the chassis and the power supply? How would Cosmic RM + Base Station 1 perform with respect to MOHR or Max?
Amp would most of the time be used with a low impedance headphone (ATH-W2002, 40Ohm) and I've heard that most tubed amps, like my MG Head for example, would not be a good match for it, so I'm looking for something that will be suitable for both W2002 *and* HD600 this time.
(leaning towards Cosmic, because it may also be used as a portable amp. suggestions, recommendations, comments, or personal experience with any of the aforementioned amps are all very-very welcome).
I'm thinking about spending no more than 1.5k USD on both CDP and an amp, so it would be fairly hard for me to afford say Max right now, but I can always try if I find that the difference in sound justifies that. And of course slim chance of auditioning anything before buying either...
