Looking for the best headphone amp to use with my Senn HD-600s. Should I go with X-Cans or Creek? Other options? Anyone have any experience with the sonic characteristics of either?
Those of you "in the know" please include observations when using Grado phones, as well. Also how about using extension cords vs. long IC as per sound quality? Sorry to intrude on your thread, Ccerny. Charlie
I considered these two and ended up with the Headroom Home for the Sennheisers. Costs a bit more than the other two, but I like it a whole lot. Unfortunately, however, I never managed to compare the three, so my opinion may not be worth all that much in the end. IMHO, though, don't rule out the Headroom gear, I think they're onto something.
I highly recommend the Audio Advancements Ear Max Pro for the Sennheisers...I have no experience with the Grado. This is a very cool looking tube (3-12ax7's) amp that is great with the HD-600's. I have owned the Headroom and Grado and to my ears the EarMax was substantially better. I got mine on e-bay.
