PAV2V2. Cost me $60.
It's strong and have a tremendous battery life (bought it in 2006 and never changed the batteries).
The sound is kind of colored, but i still enjoy it when using with my H340.
Have a Hornet on the way which may change this ...

A DIY Cmoy in a round tin.
I got a for free as part of buying some used UE super-fi 5pro on ebay. I also got my KSC 35 thrown in.

I do not know if it was a good amp or not. I did nothing to my A2 or Monolith Premium. When I got my iMod it was already sold.

The GoVibe V5. Got it from Charles on my first meet to get "things started" lol. Real sweet gift. I feel it's lacking in recessed mids and highs and a "muddy" too dark bass at times so gonna buy a Larocco PRII in about 1 or 2 weeks from now.

After I officially recognized myself as a Head-Fier (ca. 2002), the Meier Corda HA-2. Long before this startling discovery (ca. 1988: when I was an embryonic Head-Fier unbeknownst to myself), it was the JVC SA-1 integrated amp w/headphone out.

My first Headphone amp is on its way from Italy a Rudistor RPX-100
The first Amp that I used with headphones was back in 1970ish A Trio KA1000 (Still have it in storage Company name changed to Kenwood) the closed headphones were also Japanese made by a company called Eagle.

Portable Xin macro4 11/06. Home SP platinum 12/06.

Both sound good but are overpriced. SP by a lot. I understand why these things aren't sold in a store. No way would they get the asking prices. I am done with amps.

I now see the value to starting from the bottom instead of the top (relatively). Once you reach a certain sq, the dollar value diminishes greatly.
