Headphone Amp Question


Hi All,

I received a free pair of B&W P7 headphones and am using them directly from my Oppo 105 CD player.

I would like to run the headphones through my Prima Luna Dialogue Premium pre amp to a headphone amp.

What are the good choices in a tubed headphone amp that would match well with low impedance headphones such as the B&W's?

Would/should this improve the sound by adding in the PL preamp sound?

Thanks,


Scott

For more information than you can consume regarding headphone gear I'd suggest headfi.org. While researching your question I did discover this post from a headfi member.
"The B&W P7 is designed to work with portable devices, and as such, does not need an amp to sound its best. Unless you really want one, consider not splurging on mid-tier gear for now and focus on something cheaper, such as the Schiit Magni 2 (amp) / Modi 2 (DAC) stack. That will more than drive the P7 to their full potential and still be future-proof for most of your future headphone purchases."
