What headphones did you have when you bought your first amp?

I had HD580s then bought a microamp along with SR-60s and Ety ER4Ps...and that was before I found head-fi....I've since bought 5 headphones (sold only one..ouch), modded two, and bought 6 more amps (sold two).

My bootleg headphone amp setup back in the day
two of these:

and this:
Spare me.. I knew there were "audio-phile" vacuum tube speaker amps, but didn't know there were actually tube headphone amps.. I didn't even know there were any amps dedicated to headphone music listening period....

westone UM2s precipitated my need for an amp.
had hd595 and MDRsa5000, but neither needs much of an amp - just a good source.

I just started recently getting into Hifi and jumped straight into a e500 with an X5. Then just now I pulled the trigger on a Tomahawk. I got to say I'm not disappointed with the supreme sound coming with these oh so $$$ combo. My only regret is that the TH is a little too pricey for something so small
But I am in audio heaven right now with this potent 1-2 combo. I sometimes find listening to my flac or other highly encoded music more pleasurable than gaming or movies or even anime.

HD600 and Creek OBH 11-SE then a ASL MG Head OTL shortly thereafter. That was my first solid state versus tube experimentation with headphones.
