I've been looking for a while to get back into a good pair of cans after selling my HD600s and regretting it several months afterwards. Wasn't really able to audition anything outside of the 'standard' offering at Magnolia...where I tried B&W P7 and a number of noise-cancelling models because at that time, I was looking for something to use on my train commute. Flash forward to this Monday and I stumbled on Audio Advisor having the HE500 for $499. Thought I'd give them a try based on what I've read here. I have two options for driving them: PS Audio GCHA or a Peachtree Audio Grand Pre. Supposedly the PT has a very good headphone amp built in. I have my doubts. Anyone have a comment on how either of these will work with the HE500? Sounds like I should burn them in for at least 50 hours before even giving them a listen?
