Have acquired one of these, (No 7 of 10), surprised to see it doesn't feature in the the lists, is this because of its rarity?
Also, what headphones work best with it?

Anybody out there?

Skylab reviewed it here:  http://www.head-fi.org/t/423217/review-alo-audio-amphora-ss-headphone-amp and there is a pretty lengthy discussion afterwards.  Should tell you all you need to know.

if the SE is not in the lists, it's because it's rare. You can always add it manually to your list.
 
I have a non-SE version and really like it. I think the best headphones that work with it are relatively sensitive, easier to drive headphones. Something that requires a lot of power (orthos or 300 ohm headphones) would probably be better running off a higher power amp.
 
I've enjoyed the Amphora with lots of headphones from Grados, Heir IEMs, to the HD700/ HD800, LCD3 and MrSpeakers Mad Dogs. it struggles to get to loud volume with the harder to drive headphones but it still sounds good. neutral sound with a smooth high end - but not shelved treble. just not harsh and biting.

Thanks, sound fine to me with my HD650's but I'm new at this game so what do I know?
