I am looking for "best" price/quality amp for headphones which would last for years and i wouldnt need to think about changing it even my headphones would change. I dont use speakers and propably wont be using them. Because i only use headphones i will be them on my head for hours daily. Currently i am using Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80 ohm. I am using those mostly, because my house pipes keeps disturbing noise and these are good isolation ones. I dont know when it will be fixed but when it is i will buy lot better open headphones, because i love music. Maybe something near 1k€ price like HD800. I am not sure yet but i dont want to need to buy new amp when the moment comes. I use my computer on gaming, movies, music etc. Things i want from amp except good sound quality etc:
- No Leds or other disturbing lights
- Good volume knob smooth rolling etc.
- Balanced volume meaning that one ear does not play louder than another.
- Black or otherwise looking that does not draw attention
- No hissing etc. error sounds
Objective2 + ODAC have usually been recommended to me, but it cost about 300€ in Finland. JDS labs - The element i can get about 400€ and i´ve been thinking about buying it rather than odac. Only bad thing in it is the led but i think it can be taped over. Otherwise it should be all i am looking for. Does anybody know how much does it suck power from usb? I am thinking connecting it to my usb hub so i would like to know.
I asked reddit about these and someone suggested me Audio GD nfb11 so i decided to ask here, because its very confusing when all people suggest me diffrent models. I trust that here are all the professionals. Currently i am using Maverick Audio Tubemagic D1 Plus Edition which keeps error in sound, because of tube.
