100+ Head-Fier
Hi all. I am new to hi-fi audio and just trying to get my foot in the door with a decent system, but my budget is slightly limited. I have a few questions about the Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1. I am considering it to start my headphone setup.
I wonder if the TubeMagic A1 will power a pair of bookshelf speakers like B&W 685? I listened to some the other day and was blown away. I'm all for headphones, but I am still a fan of speakers. I would like to get some B&W 685s in the future. If I could get a headphone amp/DAC that would power a pair of book shelfs that would be such a huge added value to me.
A second question, would the TubeMagic work in conjunction with a Little Dot MKIII as a preamp- amplifier combination for headphones? Would there be any benefit in doing this? Would I be better off getting a separate DAC for $200 and only using the Little Dot MKIII for the headphone amp?
What is drawing me to the Maverick Tube Magic A1 currently is the potential for it to power some bookshelf speakers like B&W 685s. If it will do that, I may have to buy one.
