Hi,
I primarily use a PPA and I really really like it. It looks nice, always works, has a bass boost, and drives all my headphones. Anyway, lately I've been wondering what could be better. So what could be better? Obviously the PPA2 then following that the M3, right? I don't know much about amp design so when I am asking for an upgrade, I am asking from design/technology point of view, not really from a subjective aspect like "this amp sounds warmer."
Anyway, what would you recommend for a fan of the PPA but wants a better amp. $500 or under please. Or rather than put a set price, let's talk value or bang for the buck. I am not going to upgrade to a PPA2 and have to deal with selling my amp and finding a used PPA2 if the gains are only marginal.
I am really looking for a solid-state amp here but if you must, tube is ok too. I have nothing against them.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
