Hi guys,
Got a beyerdynamic DT880-32. Here. Yes, thirty-two ohms, as I know it this is pretty much the bottom limit for tubes. You can go higher but never lower (impedance matching), eh? Should've bought the 250 version back then...
So, Schiit Valhalla (not out yet but I can wait), Woo 3, HiFiMan EF-5, Little Dots. I can go Dark Voice (La Figaro) 733 but that would be the very top limit of my budget.
Source device is a turntable. Realistic LAB-500 with a Grado Prestige Black1 cart. The receiver (rebadged Marantz or Sanyo, search 'Lloyds H430' at Audiokarma) has a phono stage and tape outputs (the tape monitors are inputs...hmm), so this would work as a phono pre-amp. (see Home rig in my sig)
Listen to classic, some jazz, some country on this turntable. Have my iPod for everything else.
Thanks guys.
