You know, I thought the little portable tube amp ALO used to sell would do a beautiful job on the 500s.Try running HE-500 off of a MiniWatt tube amp. On sale now at ALO. I tried a lot of amps and this is the best I ever heard. Running it from my Macbook Air into a DacPort LX,out to HE-500.

You're a good citizen LugBug.
He's a sweetie. If I knew what he looked like I'd probably offer him my hand in marriage.

Unfortunately I'm already married.... But thats me in my avatar!
In order to make the post somewhat relevant to the thread, I'll update with some impressions when the amp comes in. Granted they will be off my speakers.. But, my speakers aren't too shabby. I'm sure the Emotiva will offer a good improvement over this unknown model JVC receiver. I almost wish the T50RP were a little harder to drive
Heya,
You can get a simple resistor or impedance cable to put between the amp and the T50RP to use it with the amplifier. Maybe a 50~75ohm resistor?
Very best,

In that case the wedding's definitely off!
Oh, are you still talking about headphones, Chris? We finished with that long ago.
And a level above your usual construction site comments.Funny people here on headfi...
