Hi !!!
First off... What an amazing site! Don't know why it's taken me this long to actually join the community when I've been reading threads here for over 5yrs. Pretty ridiculous!!!
There seem to be many good people here and I want to add to the community as best I can...
I'll just go through the setup I'm currently working with for PC/home and On-the-go/Gym ....
PC/Home setup: (I've owned at some point)
Cans:
Beyerdynamics DT770 PRO 80 ohm (current)
Sony V6, V600, 7506, Z1000, SA3000, V900HD, XB700, 710LP, D777, V700DJ, NC60,
Speakers:
KEF C3
Sony B1000 (current), B3000
Power:
Marantz SR5002 (dying/dead) and looking for a headphone amp under $150 or even less at the moment
On-the-go setup: (I've owned at some point)
IEMs:
MEElectronics A151 (current but water damaged at gym)
Sony AS50, XBA-S65, EX700LP, EX500LP, EX85LP
Power/Source:
Samsung Galaxy Player 3.6
If you notice there is an abundance of Sony gear... I have actually owned way more than I can remember and I had to look some up to make sure I had the right models. I used to work for Sony Electronics over 2yrs ago for a 7yr hitch ... Was fun but got worse as time went on.... Anyway looking to research some more on here about headphone amps for my cans. Really only looking for a desktop variant as I won't ever use a portable amp since I like to carry less and less as time goes on....lol
So far I've looked at Fiio, Maverick Audio, Qinpu, JDS Labs, Firestone Audio, Musical Fidelity, NuForce, AudioEngine, Cambridge, HiFiMAN, you name it I'm looking at it... lol...
Think I'm leaning towards the Fiio E10 though... not sure....hmmmm
