To preface, the LCD3f's are my favorite headphones so far.
 
Really getting bored from my WA7+tp. Even after rolling the tubes, I don't think it's getting the best possible sound.
 
Matter of fact my new Asus motherboard has a SabreDAC and it sounds better to me than the WA7+tp.
 
So my question is, will I be happy with something like an Oppo HA-1?
I want something that sounds solid, controlled (like the smooth lower end falloff of the LCD3).
I know Solid State AMPs will sound different than Tube amps, but any thoughts appreciated.
 
 
cheers

It's been my experience (and many reviewers) that the Bursons/LCDs are beautifully matched.
I had the Soloist and now the CV2+ and they mate so well with my LCD-3f, XC, and LCD-4. I tried other amps but kept coming back to the Burson for inputs energy and PRaT. My 2cents.
