I would do likewise. From what I've read the two headphones sound quite different.
From what I heard, it would rather be a sidestep than a step-up. However, some people claim otherwise.

the 800 is pretty much everything the 650 isn't. they really don't have the same purpose imo. 1hour of hd800 would kill me, when 8hours of hd650 are ok. now if we're talking precision, wow effect and ******* wide headstage, then hd800 is one of , if not the best. personnaly I wouldn't have one if it was free but I recognize the quality of details.
The HD800 isn't a competitor to 650, it's a wealthy neighbour

Hi,
I am really a new one in this forum. It is my first post here.
I am finding an amp for my HD650. I know that normally most people will chose an amp for HD650 not more than $600. (just for normal case). Firstly I have the same opinion. But after I tried T1 once, I thought I will buy T1 next year. So I am thinking to buy an amp which can run both HD650 and T1 well.
1. Violectric HPA V200 (maybe the best balanced choice, price and performance may be both good for this two headphones)
2. CORDA CLASSIC (I know this is good for T1, but I also heart it seems does not pair with HD650? )
3. PATHOS AURIUM (this is really attractive, but the price is high 1060 euros. Is this amp have a high CP ? I know it can drive most headphones well)
4. WOO Audio WA2 (it is not easy to buy it from Europe.)
5. Schiit LYR (The price is so good, and it is a hot amp in any forums, but I do not know how good it is, someone say it is good, but mostly due to its price and big power)
Thank you for any information you can give. I am not living in big city, so I do not have any chance to listen them...Really hope anyone can give me any suggestions.
PS : my audio source is PC + Atoll DAC 100 (it is not a hot brand, and made in France. But have good analysis , and maybe digital and cold, cost around 500 euros)

I am now living in France, I just check the price of some proper amps, which have good price or good performance. (but I just got some information from internet ). So, I post them here, and hope to get any helps from you

If you're into tubes, I'd get a Valhalla 2. It's cheaper than Lyr and is a better fit for higher impedance cans like HD650/T1.
That being said, the Valhalla or some other design might indeed be better for the 650s. For one, the Lyr is really designed to be big'n'beefy for orthos. You dont need that kind of power for the 650s - so for the same price, it might be worth getting an amp where the cost is allocated differently.
Thanks, SunTanScanMan,
Is Corda Classic a little bit worm for HD650? I heart that the high frequency of Corda Classic is a lit bit dark. I have no idea... Could you give me more information on this?
Thanks.
