Great amp, indeed. I also had one and sold it, and it's one of those things I regret not having around. Almost certainly will buy again at some point.
I thought about buying another one, I sold my first one, but it looks like they're going for $700 new now so I'm probably not going to. Not new at least.
I use SE output so my Schiit Asgard 3 is still making me happy.

No No No!!!! I have both pieces and each has its place, but the Behringer is a low-fi piece at best - it's an $80 EQ in front of a $500 headphone amp! You're killing the RNHP! Please disconnect it immediately and get a Schiit Loki or Lokius!
Actually sounds pretty good with the Behringer. But, yes, I was thinking about the Loki as well. Thanks for the suggestion.

There’s also the Bellari EQ570, a bit cheaper, but gets good reviews and has good build quality.
I've seen it, but I want to see the insides. Schiit shows pictures of their products inside and out. I'm not convinced Bellari is as good a product. I have both the Loki and the newer Loki Mini+. The new one is much better. I use the Behringer with my electronic drum kit for the headphones.

Thanks for that picture! It's clear that the Bellari is nowhere near the quality level of the Schiit. Those JRC45XX opamps are in every low-cost device out there, and the cheap carbon resisitors and film capacitors make it worse. Compare that to the Schiit...well you can't, actually.
