Dassrite. I'm not one of those people who believes in the special '70s voodoo that happens when you team up '70s speakers with '70s amps and '70s cartridges playing '70s vinyl, but to really amp the first-gen orthos, it's no surprise that something that was designed for low-sensitivity transducers using old magnets works very well.
You have two choices: marry rich and buy present-day 'phile amps for thousands of monetary units, or accept the risks of owning vintage gear and enjoy really good sound for pennies on the dollar. You might find your other power-hungry 'phones (K501, HD 600) sound better too.
