Hello everyone,
I just picked up a pair of DT880's on ebay and want an amp/DAC to go with them. I'm going to use them with my computer, so want USB connection. I'd like to keep it under $300. I've been searching around the forum, but there are just too many choices to sift through.
So if you guys could throw out some suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.
I listen to a lot of alternative music that is on the softer side, acoustic stuff, good with female voices is a plus, and I try to find stuff that is well recorded. I'm not a base head, but I like it clean and tight. Mids and highs are higher up on the list than base. I like a clean, detailed sound, but not too sterile....some warmth is appreciated. However, detail is more important. I hope this gives a good idea of my preferences. I know $300 is not a lot, but I'm hoping there's something that will meet my needs.
I'd really like something that will do for now until I get more of a feeling for what I look for in a headphone and amp.
I've looked at the Fubar III and just read about the GoVibe Magnum. The Magnum looks to not be out yet, so I've probably read what there is to read on it in the forum. How about the Fubar? Any opinions?
Thanks!
edit: size doesn't matter.
