I'm looking for a warm-sounding amp with a rich midrange and slightly recessed trebles for my DT531s. I was initially looking at tube amps in the $500 range, specifically the Singlepower PPX3. Now I see a thread for a Perreaux SXH1 for $200 and am wondering... is it really going to be worth it to get a $500 amp for a $150 headphone?
Aside from an E-Mu 0404, the amp is the last thing I need for my headphone system to be complete. I want something that's very synergistic with the DT531s, and while I don't want to skimp, I certainly don't want to break the bank, either. Should I snag the perreaux? Or wait until I have enough coin to get a PPX3 (or other tube amp)? Or is there another option I'm overlooking?
