As the title states! I'm looking for a lush sounding tube amp specifically for my Denons and Grado's for less than 400ish. Whats your pick?
I have read that Little Dot I+ (around $150 shipped from China) is good with D2000/D5000. I just got one myself, but my D2000 are still on back order, so I can't actually comment on whether it sounds any good or not. I have read enough people using this combo that I decided to take the plunge. Another option that I heard was good is the O2 ($150 assembled) with D2000/D5000. Neither of these amps get even close to your $400 mark though. I also want to emphasize that I haven't heard any of them. I got this info from responses in the D2000 / D5000 appreciation thread: http://www.head-fi.org/t/350721/denon-d2000-d5000-md2000-md5000-appreciation-thread/1875#post_8213230
I am also curious as to what other people have actually heard sound good with the headphones you mentioned, as I am looking for a good solid state desktop amp for them.
