[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 952353, member: 1447"] i don't have huge experience with headphone amps - but for now i'm aiming to get another ifi iDSD micro (black label) again - it should do, because it outputs 4watts (4000mw) at 16 ohms .... but honestly all the lower powered amps that i have tried are leaving me personally underwhelmed with that headphone (Tube/vakve amps may be different and sound like they have more oomph with these headphones than lower powered solid state jobbies) it isnt cheap to use the iDSD BL since it is currently around R9k which is why its more of a long term aim for me (i foolishly sold mine away thinking that i would move to a desktop audio GD or something like that but now Audio GD isnt locally available anymore and is only available via import from China .... and imprting from China usually entails using SAPO which for me is a definite no-no so i'm looking at getting another iDSD BL from Francois at Audio Exchange within another 6 to 8 months time .... but thats just me and the problem is that it isn't an inexpensive solution that Amp that H-P links looks interesting :thumbs: [/QUOTE]
