I am looking for a DIY tube amp for HD650.
Would you mind giving some recommendation?

How much are you looking to spend?

Do you want to build from a PCB or are you comfortable going point-to-point?

Have you built or repaired tube gear before?

Do you want a kit or are you comfortable fabricating your own case?

What topology are you looking for and are there any particular tubes you'd like to use?

What other equipment are you going to use with it aside from the Sennheisers?

There are lots of good DIY tube amps out there, so please be a little more specific and you'll get lots of suggestions.

If you want to browse some very nice amps, look at the project library at HeadWize.

Also, if you have questions about anything, feel free to ask.

Ditto...

...though, it is a tube / SS hybrid - it is SUPERB with Senns!

Plus the kit is very complete - with a very nice, commercial look.

Or... the MAD EAR+ HD if you want a tube amp.

The DIY forum is a better place to look, but the usual suspacts are Millett (Max, Starving Student, MiniMax) and Cavalli designs (Bijou, SOHA II, etc), and CKIII.
