So I've been thinking lately, should I just start off with the HifiMan EF2 (As my first amp), or should I just save up for a little dot MK5 or a MK4 amp?
My current source is a MacBook, and I need something for my Grado HF2s, else I would be stuck with the headphone out of my MacBook, and I personally don't want that.
Note: I don't have enough money for the LD MK4/5 amp yet, just enough for a EF2 though.

Start off with the EF2. Mine had great synergy with Grado's.

Worst case, they have a 30-day return policy if you feel it's not enough.

Ooh a 30 days refund? That's pretty decent.

^ Yup, but you'll need to pay return shipping.

return shipping is cheap if you live in the US. It goes to Elmhurts, NY.

Just discovered the Gilmore Lite headphone amp. There's too many choices out there

I think I'll just stick with the EF2 first, but I'd like some more opinions please.

Start with the EF2. I own an EF1 and thought it sounded better than a LD MKV (with my AKG K701) when I had both, and ended up selling the Little Dot. The EF2 is supposed to sound pretty similar.
