Recommendation Request: Headphone Amp/DAC combo


I currently drive my Hifman HE1000SE phones with a Hifiman EF400 Amp/DAC.  I like it but would like upgrade.  This amp was only about 400 bucks.  If I were to go up to 2 to 3 k in spend.  What units would you recommend?

 

Thanks in Advance

Hi. If you are set on an all in one unit Audio-Gd makes some nice ones. I previously had an R-28. It had plenty of power send a very musical timbre. The reason I sold it was because I wanted the flexibility of separate components ( I don't hold to the notion of "end game"). After all, this is a hobby and sampling different components is a part of the enjoyment.
