It seems rHead is not available. Can't find it anywhere online in europe

The Arcam is probably a good choice, so is the Atome of Magni3 or Vali 2, but trust me on this: all you really need is an O2 amp by Massdrop (Drop.com), cheaper than the JDS Labs version. I know there is swiss manufacturer that also Builds the O2: headnfihi.com, or other US manufacturers mayflowerelectronics.com or lucidlaboratories.com

I know there is an European company that also Builds the O2. I’ll modify my post here if I can find the name of the european manufacturer
If I order from Massdrop, I have to pay taxes and stuff so I'm not sure if it's worth it?

For the last few days I've been reading about amps. So on low budget there are Magni 3, O2, Liquid Spark, Atom. The best would be Atom. At least thats what I think. Thing about Atom is that in USA it is 100$ amp, but in Europe it is 200$ amp. Still worth the money? Anything better in 200$ range?

Thanks!

Have the Magni 3 and Liquid Spark both work fine with these cans...really any solid amp will.

But...since you'll be buying other headphones down the road, I'd consider the Asgard 3 at €229.00 or the Asgard 2 at €199.00

Not sure where these stack up to those you've mentioned but here are a few others...

Won't send to Europe

Synthesis of my struggle living in Brazil. Sometimes you can find great headphones for a good price in Brazilian audiophile forums but most of the time they are too expensive.

Finding an amp is impossible, I'm almost importing an Atom and El Dac but customs are 60% of the product (shipping cost included) so if they charge me I'm in trouble. Doesn't help that dollar value is jumping

In USA Atom is $100, in Europe with shipping $200
