Hi I am looking for a new headphone amp. I will be pairing it with a HD650 and my Yulong D18 DAC I also require a preamp as I would like to use it in my speaker system. I have already looked at the following options but feel free to add more if you like. I am also very interested in DIY so I am open to DIY suggestions. I would also prefer tubes over solid state. I am currently leaning toward the Little Dot MK IV because of its price and because I would be able to do a bit of tweaking to it. I have also been looking at the bottle head crack but unfortunately it lacks a pre-amp option. From what I understand you can use it as one but it would not be optimal in this role.
Woo Audio WA3 $620
Little Dot MK IV $309 and the SE version $409
Nu Force HAP-100 $595
Schiit LYR (has an output but its not strictly a preamp right?) $449
Audiio gd SA-31 $499
