I think your wife has a point. Headphone amps are like shoes - you buy one [pair], then use it until it falls apart. Also, when buying one, go as cheap as possible, because even the cheapest get the job done.
Seriously though, I set aside a small fun, just-for-me budget every month, for which I don't have to ask anyone for advice or approval.
Ha! Totally get what you mean. I was just thinking how I thought the 789 was "end game" for me. But I'm soooon realizing there is no such thing. It took me 3+ years to settle on a new amp and by that time the 789 is already 2+ years old now. That is the only reason why I was thinking of spending more on the A90. What I should have done was instead of the SMSL M200, maybe get the E30 and use the savings from that and put it toward the A90 but it's too late to return the M200 now.
Definitely thankful for this community of people to talk through this with!
