It's not always about more power. Dynamics, transparency and other things factor in. Tubes
are a plus in my book.

Audio-GD SA-31.
10watts to the HE-400, and 1.4watts to the HD650 Diamond differential...
Owned it, loved it, but I needed a volume knob so I sold it and downgraded to a Compass 2.

What music player do you guys use with apple macbook beside the itunes?
NO!
More power than the Lyr (10 watts at 40ohm vs 6 watts at 32ohm of the Lyr), and no dealing with tubes.
That and MANY inputs.
Pair that up with a good DAC, and I doubt you'll need anything else.
Nah no way it's clipping. It's not sound being produced by the driver, it sounds like someone is tapping the headphone while you're wearing it. We had a discussion about this not too long ago, I think someone referred to it as a "twaack".
can the he-400 handle 10 watts with volume control? was looking at emotiva not too long ago

Does anyone know which of these 2 amps would be best for the HFM-400's ?
Matrix M-Stage with Burr Brown OPA627BP with Class A Biasing Mod upgrade
or
Audinst HUD-mx2 Hi-Fi USB Audio DAC
Similar price range.
