Has anyone heard the Asgard with Beyer DT 990's, particularly the 600 Ohm? 
 
Also the AKG K 702's?

The Asgard and the HD600s are a match made in heaven.

Thanks for the tip, I'm about to suck the life out of my bank account again

Haven't heard it w/ the 990s but I have heard it with the 600 ohm T1s.  Sounded ok.  I did not listen critically.  I was listening for obvious problems like power transfer and apparent distortions.  I didn't hear any overt problems.

I wan't aware that they tweaked the 650's. This is encouraging news. My RS-1's and my HD-600's were my first pair of headphones
since my Koss Pro 4AA's. I take that back. As soon as I left my tightwad of a first wife, the first thing that I did was head to J& R and
ask for the best headphones that money could buy and they sold me an incredibly nice pair of Beyer Dynamic DT-901's for $399.
The only problem was the coiled cord but I was in hog heaven.
B&O tried to sell me some pair of BeoSound something or others, but I wouldn't bite. They looked cool, but had huge gaps in the mid-bass.
Like the Bose, all bottom and top, with nothing in-between. 
Their store sure was was cool, though. I figured if it was good enough for "La Femme Nikita" it would be cool for me.
Then I woke up and smelled the polypropylene.

Ah, the smell of polypropylene in the morning...

Hi Jason, would this baby of yours be able to drive the beyerdynamic DT-990 (600ohm)? The reason why I am asking is because I just ordered one from amazon.com. I am looking at a amp now. I am thinking this amp or the coming tube one from your new company.
 
I am also liking Caryin HA-1A. So these are the three I have short listed so far.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Ha Ha.. I thought you were talking about the measured electroflux degeneration factor ratio.

AAAHHHHHH!
 
I thought there was no tax when buying from the site, even for CA residents??
 
Anyway,  I took the plunge with a Valhalla. I hope I'm not disappointed!

Not unless Schiit wants to get into some deep schitt with the California Board of Equalization. Which I don't suspect they do.
