Today I got home with my Marantz PM44-SEF integrated amplifier and as I tried it's headphone out I was horrified.
It's not inferior to my Creek OBH-11. Not inferior AT ALL. That's a shock. I had heard that the OBH11 wasn't all that good and not much better than an integrated amp's out... but I never believed it. Now I'm truly shocked.
The audio out in my integrated even bests the OBH11 in some areas.
So here I am, looking for a new amp. All I can spend is $300.
What should I look into?
Currently I only have Sennheiser HD580s but I plan on buying a pair of Grados soon (either 225 or 325).
Thanks in advance.
