Hi all and happy new year. Like the title says, I use my headphones for practically everything such as listening to music, watching movies, playing PC and console video games, and sometimes watching television (when awesome shows are on like the 24 hours of Le Mans). I was wondering what your opinions are for whether tube or solid state amps are best suited for all of these sources. Perhaps it's the romantic look of tube amps that leads me to believe that they are not suited to such brash, harsh sounds like gunshots and explosions but I may be wrong. Right now, I have my eye set on the Ray Samuels HR-2 but I may save up a little longer and splurge on a Raptor if I get some good feedback from people who use tube amps with many different sources. I know I probably won't get a definitive answer, so I'm just looking for some opinions. Thanks.
