I need to find a dedicated (read home) headphone amp that's going to drive my headphones properly and the way they were meant to be heard. My primary focus is my 701s and my 770/250s, although I still do use my HHF-1s, HHD580s, 770/80s, HSR225s, and TF10pro too.
Right now, my two amps that I use are the earmax pro and Xin's SMIV. The two main sources I use are my Music Hall CD25.2 and my laptop with an echo indigo DJ soundcard. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy my EMP and SMIV very much, but I'm feeling/thinking I still haven't my headphones' potential.
I need some help finding an amp (either SS or tube) that will truly let my headphones sing. I figure my budget for a dedicated home amp would be maxxed at $700 on the very high end. I'm also very receptive to some of the amp builders here to create something along the lines of what I'm looking for.
Any suggestions anyone??
