I need a REALLY phenominal transparent SE SS amp, 
 
Quick, Dark, Wide Deep sound stage, fast transients an great sound stage a n seperation, An I need it to be around $400
 
My issue is my NFB10ES2 sounds FANTASTIC... when your using the Balanced Output of the amp, the SE output on that amp... isn't bad... but it's not great. the SE out of my NFB10ES2 is slower an more congested than the balanced output is [which ofc it is it's a Balanced SS amp, why would it run identically out of both the SE an Balanced Side] 
 
So I'd like to have a secondary amp [no dac as the NFb10ES2 dac is also fanFriggin Tastic] to run my SE headphones out of. Purely to save me the trouble of having to reCable every new headphone I get, just to be able to hear it's tru potential in my Rig
