1000+ Head-Fier
The Sphinx is Rogues latest amp. It's a hybrid tube/class-d 100wpc integrated with 3 line inputs, a phono input, pre-out and a main out.
And a really good headphone amp.
I've spent about three hours listening to my HD800's through the Sphinx and am surprised at how good the headphone out on this thing is. Very detailed lots of 'slam' (unusual for the HD800's and a built-in amp) big, spacious image.
I've haven't spent a lot of time listening to built-in amps in cd players, integrateds, etc. But this one is pretty special.
If you're in the market for a $1295 full-featured integrated and want built-in headphone amp check out the Sphinx.
PS: I bought mine to run a hobby shop system but it's so good on my Quad 57's I'm keeping it there.
