First of all, I'd like to say that I use Meridain Explorer 2 as a DAC and I'm fine with it. I kinda feel that Meridain Explorer 2 won't power the HD700 well since it's 150 Ω. So, I looked on head-fi forums and found out that some users use Schiit Vali as an AMP. I got advice by the user and this helped me consider buying an amp. But, I have to consider that I live out of the US and this will be a disadvantage for me if anything needs to sent back to the company for repair,etc. Especially, when it comes to tube amps, I have to consider the cost I'll have the cover.
As I search more about Schiit audio products, I came into 2 options, Schiit Magni 2 uber and Asgard 2. Asgard 2 costs more about $100 and it's a A class? amp which I really don't know what good about class A amp. I can see that it gets hot but maybe I have to careful with that factor. I wish to know how Asgard 2 is greater? than Magni 2 uber or vice versa. I do hear that Asgard 2 has a great build and sound quality similar to $500~$900 amp? from some reiews because it does not use extravagant components.
