Hello All,
I've been reading a ton of posts on this site and I think I've narrowed my choices down to two. I'm in Podunk, USA... the only way I'll see (or hear) the qualities of a headphone amp is to buy it outright on the blind. A 500-mile drive wouldn't get me any closer to seeing a headphone amp live.
With that in mind, I list my set-up in order to give those who'll share their advice with me, an idea of my audio ''standard'':
60G 4th Generation IPod
OPPO 970
Denon AH-D5000
Krell Showcase Processor
2 McIntosh MC-2105 amps
Fosgate Audionics FAA1000.5 amp
BW Nautilus 805s fronts
w/SVS PB12-Plus2 sub
I've narrowed my choice of headphone amp to either the DarkVoice 337 or the SinglePower Extreme, I think. (Any dissenters, please post your reasoning, I'm a real fish when it comes to headphone amp requirements. [I only know what I like in 'quality'].)
I think I'd prefer to keep to USA-made goods (just to ''buy USA''; I spend enough at Walmart and Lowe's), however, quality is most important. So, given the two choices, which would you prefer, and why?
Thank you.
