Anyone compare the Earmax headphone amp

I've been thinking about upgrading my headphone amp. I currently use creek's obh-11 amp with the upgraded psu, a pair of sennheiser hd580's, and an arcam alpha7 cd player. I enjoy this setup but I have heard these phones sound better/different (especially with vocals and midrange detail) with other eguipment that was far out of my price range, and I'm hoping an amp would get me where I want to be. The earmax is just in my range at $575 US. plus it looks really cool. any suggestions

You might want to look into the Earmax Pro instead. It has increased drive capability and better parts.

I have not heard the regular Earmax but the Pro version definitely doesn't have a problem with bass extension - it goes right to the bottom. It also kills everything below $700 IMO.

The MG-Head DT is good for the price but the Earmax Pro is far, far, better.
