So I recently purchased a pair of HE-560's. Previously I had been using a Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1 to power my HD650's, which worked well. I'm afraid the TubeMagic just isn't powerful enough for the HE-560's. I'm trying to determine what the best sub $500 amp would be for the HE-560's. Below are the amps i'm considering (in no particular order), but am open to any suggestions.
-Schiit Lyr
-Schiit Lyr2
-Emotiva Mini-X a-100
-Hifiman EF-5
-Garage1217 Polaris
-Garage 1217 Ember
What does everyone suggest?
i think ur list is solid. specwise if u want very powerful tube hybrid amp, lyr 2 fpr 4w. feature wise, if u want the best tube hybrid for tube rolling, project ember (2.4w). i havent rly researched ur other options as well.
