The McCormack Micro is one of the few that come to mind that meet your headphone amp request, and even though I am quite sure it retailed under a grand, it was well received and probably sells for more than $200... may be worth keeping an eye out for however.
Beginner Amp for near or under 200..
Hello all, I'm in the market for an amp after the one I grew up on busted on me. I'll be using it for vinyl and (gasp!) playing cds I have archived on my computer. I'm looking for as good an amp as I can get for around 200 dollars. It's important that it can get rather loud, with a headphone output as well, as I play drums and often practice with cd's and records. Any suggestions?
