AKG K501. I bought a Corda HA-2.
What headphones did you have when you bought your first amp?

I selected and bought my HD650 and X-can V3 together.
IMO it is all about the right combination of amp and phones.

AKG K501 because they sure needed an amp! I ended up with a (pre-2k) Rega Ear and modded the heck out of it. It was a great setup -- many hours of enjoyment.

sr-60 (Thanks to Burt's in Kingston NY) lead me to porta corda mk1 thanks to this evil place. $100s later I'm disturbingly happy thanks to Sennheiser, Musical Fidelity and Cambridge Audio (and Carla Bruni at the moment).

Your first amp is the Aristaeus to use with the Sennheiser HE90 Orpheus headphones. Wow.
Talk about going up the ladder quickly.

I had Etymotic ER-4P and Senn HD580. I bought my first amp to drive the HD 580s. It was the RSA XP-7 w/Power Supply (AD797).

I had Sennheiser HD485s and got a Little Dot Micro+
Now I have HD650s and a Hornet, go figure. (curse you, Head-Fi)

Grado SR 225 and Shure e2c.
I bought the amp specifically to see how much I could get out of the new Grados. They are sweet with no amp, so I can't wait to see what they're like with it. Got the amp a couple days ago and waiting on ALO Vampire so I can find out. Mail taunts me every day I wait!
