Are they any good for the price?
 
I have been looking at these tube headphone amps on ebay the last little while, and they usually come in a few flavours, ranging from $50 to $150.
 
Have anybody tried them, and what are the impressions on them?  I am particularly interested in the following, helping to drive my modded Fostex and v3 Magnums:
 
  1. Mini dual tube (link)
  2. YJ 6N11 Tube amp (link)
  3. SRPP 6N3 + 6N5P (link)
  4. Valve Class A Tube (link)
  5. 6N2 + 6P14 tube (link)
  6. 6N3+6Z4 tube Highi end preamplifier board HB (link)
 
Alternatively, I am looking to get a Schitt Lyr, or even something like a Dacmini or a Burson in the future (I know they are SS).  Is it worth it if I get one of these tubes?  Or should I just save up and get one of the higher end ones, or should I just get an M-stage?

On the website Rockgrotto, the sub-forum has a headphone amplifier section on these kind of tube amps.
I think the Indeed MK2s (sold on eBay) are a good design, priced $70-$95.
