My first thought is the Eleven Audio Broadway. Should I look elsewhere?

hmm putting your hifi rack with your regular amp/dac on wheels also makes it sort of transportable ... within the house at least

THX Onyx does a great job with my Diana v2!

I would suggest considering a RSA Intruder as it is capable of driving the HE-6. You could pick up an adapter to convert the RSA balanced to 4 pin balanced.

How about Woo WA11 ?
I don't write this, because I'am selling one (because I am from EU), but I also used it with my Abyss 1266 very satisfiingly. This little amp has enough power.

Look at the Cayin C9

This one I have forgot about I heard it with the MySphere 3.2 at one of the CanJams and though more efficient it did sound pretty good .

iFi micro iDSD Diablo.

This is one that I’ve been considering mainly for the balanced line out and it is quite powerful but just watts is not the whole story. I have a Liquid Platinum that outputs like 4.2 watts @ 56 ohms and with my AB-1266’s sounds a bit hollow where as my Liquid Carbon is 2.8 watts @ 50 ohms and has a much fuller sound and is pretty much my reference for a transportable amp for the 1266’s right now.
I might just pick up the Diablo and take it to CanJam NYC ( if Omicron doesn’t shut it down ) and try it with the Broadway if it doesn’t work well enough for me.

The RSA connector is a problem for me as another adapter I’m not looking for .

Might be worth trying the Micro iDSD Signature. Its a bit warmer and fuller sounding than the Diablo. You lose a bit overall power, but it honestly works well with the Abyss for a transportable amp imo.

Transportable, but remain as a desktop in the new location? If yes, shouldn't anything work as long as you get something like this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/330231-REG/Pelican_1510_000_110_1510_Carry_On_Case.html

Just asking is this coming from experience from the 2.

Sorry no this is not what I’m looking for. Seahorse makes the sizes I’m looking for as I have several.
