Hello. I’m planning to buy it and I wonder if there is any better amp around that price ($2500).
I am looking for timbre and texture of the music.

What are your headphones? I've also recently been looking at some small solid state options in this price range. If you mostly use Focal or ZMF headphones I'd take a look at the Nitsch DSHA-3FN

Ah okay the DSHA-3FN doesn't seem like the best fit with planars so never mind. Ferrum Oor + Hypsos and Holo Audio Bliss are two staples around $3k for planars. Unfortunately it's really hard to find reviews of the 433 so it's kind of hard to triangulate how they'd all compare

How good is the Holo Audio Bliss in terms of sound? Can it beat Mass Kobo?

Also intrigued by this amp now that I just happened to stumble upon it. Great price point. Like that it's balanced. Can't find any reviews though. Any impressions by owners?

I must have missed the details in the write up, bc over on this thread it says the amp is made for dynamic headphones primarily, with a max output of 1.2w. I'm mostly planar. Anyway, would still love to read any thoughts from the field
