CRAP,CRAP,CRAP!DON’T buy into the need more power BS,UNLESS your running in a BIG room OR always listening VERY LOUD!!! I’ve run Dyn’s for YEARS with lower power tubes & SS amps..Started with Audience 52>Audience 52SE>X14 & now X18’s...

The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp
I don’t recommend doing this..Your basically using a preamp(asr)>power amp(asr)>into another pre amp(headphone amp)>power amp(headphone amp)...As the ASR does NOT have a built in DAC you must be using something as a source into the ASR?Th...

Pathos "Inpol Remix Mk.II" & "Classic Remix Mk.II" both have headphone circuits specifically designed to be as good as stand alone units costing big $..I can attest to the quality of the Classic Remix Mk.II,using it with HiFiMan HE1000V2,Audez...
