I've started to look at amps after hanging out here for a while. The options are a bit confusing after reading through a lot of posts. I want a heaphone amp to use with my laptop and possibly an external DAC in the future but first the amp.
The amp has to be able to drive anything from the AT A500's to Senn HD 650's with authority. It can't cost more than US$500 and will be used at home in Australia (we have 240 volt power). I listen mainly to hip-hop, but also will also use it for TV, movies, jazz and funk. No classical music.
What do you guys recommend? The PPA looks like a good option? Maybe one of the Headroom amps? CORDA HA-1 MkII? LaRocco PPA? Perreax SXH1 (US$445 over here)? Musical Fidelity X-Can v3 (US$410 over here)? Any others? What's the under $500 bargain out there that kills evrything else for the price?
Thanks
Edit: Maybe the Rudistor RP3 or RP4?
