Hi - thanks in advance for advice...
I'm driving a new set of HD595's at home. I've got 3 different "standard" amps around to drive them with, but am curious about two things:
first, theoretically, which of the three (below) "should" be the best headphone driver for the 50ohm lovelies?
Denon 3903
NAD 7175
Rotel RX960 bx
Yes, I should listen and choose with my heart, but by the time I finish moving, wiring and trying to match levels and the like, I'd be better off with a dartboard...
second question - at what price level comes a dedicated headphone amp that will clearly out-perform any of the above? I'm rather new to this part of the territory, so any advice is quite welcome and appreciated.
