I am new to this forum and I think it's great to see so many music lovers out there like me! Reading about the different types of headphones made me so pumped, so I decided to purchase the AKG K701 today!
However, I do not know much about amps. It would be appreciated if you could suggest entry-level amps that would work well with these headphones.
I'm hoping to spend less than $150(200 max if it's a must?) used/new. --- Also I was wondering if these would work well with Little Dot II+?... or with the budget I have, would it be better to use a portable one?
Thanks in Advance

Here is a list of economical amps that can give enough power to the K701. It is also my list of candidates!
1. Zero DAC/AMP - $140USD + no shipping
2. Xin Super Micro IV - $160 + shipping (can only find them used)
3. Little Dot MK III TUBE AMP $200USD, no shipping
4. Pico Canamp $299 + $25 shipping... expensive but really good reviews
5. Heed Canamp - approx $350 Used... expensive but really good reviews
