Hey all, I am currently in the market for a reasonably priced(sub 400 $) tube amp/dac combo for home use.
My criteria are as follows:
1) The aforementioned price limit.
2)a decent DAC Topology.
3) Ability to compliment a wide array of headphones.
4) Ability to plug straight into a pc.
5) tube " roll-ability"
pluses: general Good looks, neutrality, without sacrificing the depth and soul of tube amps.
My gear I would use it with:
1) Sennheiser hd595
2) Sennheiser momentum
3) t90 Tesla
4) K550 AKG
5) DT 1350
6) Audio-Technica ad700
7) Sony mdr ex1000(iems)
you may notice that I tend to gravitate towards headphones with a flatter signature, which is the generally the case. The momentums are really the black sheep in this lineup.
I searched for a comparable thread before starting this one.
ALL SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME!!
