Headphone Amp. for Sennheiser HD 580 headphones...


Any recommendations for a GOOD headphone amplifier? I have an Audio Research LS 15 pre amp. and would like to be able to listen to the headphones at night. CD player is Naim CD5. I just noticed an add for an Earmax headphone amplifier and it looked really nice.(Sold) Will set the price range up to $800. Unit could be SS or tube. thank you for your suggestions. Richard.....

I use the my Sennheiser 600s with Musical Fidelity xCansV2 (about $280 for the amp from audioadvisor.com). I also switched the 2 6922 Sovtek tubes in the amp for upgraded Valvos, with a bit of an improvement. If your budget is that big for the headphone amp, you may get better results upgrading to Sennheiser 600 - just a thought. Good luck.
