Hello Head-Fi,
I'm looking to upgrade my headphone setup. Right now I've got a set of AKG K171 Mkii 'phones (which are 55 ohm) going straight from my computer. I use the FiiO E6 for my iPod. I am looking for a headphone amp (sub $300) to improve my setup. I've had my sights set on the Schiit Asgard for a while now, but am also considering the tube amps Little Dot MK II or MK III. My question is: which amp would be a good match with my current headphones (also good for any future headphones I may decide to purchase)? Also are there any other choices under $300 worth considering? Also I own the HRT MusicStreamer II, and use it with my stereo, but plan to use this in combination with the amp I get.
