I second the suggestion for the corda ha-2 and since my corda prehead could not property drive the DT880 with a computer grade powercord, budget yourself $150 for a 10 guuge PC for the amp and another $150 for a pc for the compact disc player.My real advice is to send that power pig back to where you bought it ,buy the highly efficient beyer DT440 and save yourself a thousand dollars in amps and powercords.With the money you save,buy yourself the finest source you can afford.

Will the Rega Ear amp, match good with the DT880s?
I'm thinking about buying it.
