I have a pair of Sennheiser 600's that I use with a portable CD player on the road paired with a Headroom Air head which was about 179$??? It's unbelievable to me how good the sound is for the money compared with the 18000$ main system. Great detail and resolution, good bass and non fatiguing sound...couldn't say if its that circuit headroom uses or not but it sounds good for the money. Also they were very helpful without being too self promoting.I also have an antique sound labs headphone amp that I've only used a few times at home that's not bad either but I just never use it when I am home. I read recently that the grado amp was designed by the same engineer who made the famous marantz tube amp and preamps. The idea was to make the grado combos sound similar which made me want to try it for that reason alone since the grado could travel as well. If you're interested in trying the antique sound labs amp let me know maybe we could work something out.
