Buddy of mine was over tonight - a strong anti-headphone guy - and he happened to pick up my K501s and listen to some Nightwish on it.
I think he'd have disappeared out of my bloody apartment with them if I hadn't watched him.
Anyway, his goal now is to pick up a set of 501s and an amp. Now, the problem lies in the amp - he doesn't want to spend a huge amount on one, I'd say about $150 shipped at the max, since the 501s are about $200 on ebay and he's not a member here to pick up FS forum stuff - but he did like the way my Travagan White sounded. However, that's out of his range, and since he'll be doing stationary listening only, I thought the Zero would be a good choice....until I saw it doesn't have a USB connection.
So, 501 amp/DAC for under ~$150 shipped, with a USB input. Anything like that exist?
