Im new to this site and new to headphones but a long time audiophile. I played musical amps in my home system for years trying everything from meridian, proceed, classe, krell and levinson to name a few. In the end my favorites are BAT preamp, Levinson 436 mono's and B&W Nautilus speakers. Alas i sold everything and moved on to my next hobby and life long love flying. Although i love my 84 piper dakota the lycoming engine dosent sound near as nice. I would still like a way to listen to music and with kids a nice headphone system seemed like a reasonable solution. After reading everything i can im leaning toward a RSA Raptor. My Questions are these...
If anyone owns levinson home amp which headphone amps come as close to the levinson "sound"? How does the raptor compare to the above. also im going to need a usb/toslink dac. My amp budget somewhere between $900.00and $1500.00. I still have a lexicon mc-12b home theater processor in my home theater system so i can use the analog outs on it (it has both balanced and SE outs) for the time being but will eventually want the USB dac ability.
Hello to everyone, thanks for having me and thanks for any help you can provide.
btw anyone who wants to buy me a garmin gnc-530w for christmas i would be forever in your debt.
Thanks
