TOTL Headphone Amps

The Rupert Neve Precision headamp/ DAC blew me away at CanJam with its realism and overall natural sound. I also listened to many headphones with the DCS Bartok and it sounded very nice in all instances but there was just something special about the Precision.

I don't know if I'd call the HA 430 "TOTL", but I have one and it's fantastic.  The Sony TA-ZH1ES is also excellent.  I have no experience with the Rogue amp.  Others I've owned or own:

Hifiman EF6 (it's a beast!)
Auralic Taurus
Musical Fidelity M1 HPAP
Oppo HA-1

I agree, the Rupert Neve is a great amp.   Worth every penny.   I have had one for about 2 years.   It makes any phones sound great.   Unlikely a better amp than the Neve at it's price.  I would say it has the lowest noise floor of any component I've ever owned.   Only complaint is it is very unforgiving of poor source material. 

I just picked up the Quicksilver Headphone Amp and it is phenominal.    Is it worth $1000 ?   Yes, absolutely !!!    If you love tube amps and are looking for one that can drive any phone , it will not disappoint.

@oddiofyl  so I'm assuming that you prefer the quiksilver headphone amplifier over the Precision? What headphones were you using? I have the Arya and they like juice. You are definitely piquing my interest in the Quicksilver amp

I have to say, I really like the Neve.   It has 3.5mm, RCA,  and xlr/ trs combo inputs.   I have it connected directly to my DAC's balanced outs 25' away.    The Quicksilver is connected to my pre's tape out so all my sources appear at it's input.  

I am using Beyer DT911, an older phone that is 600 Ohm.  The Neve can drive them but not as loud and clean as the QS.    I was concerned the QS would struggle with low imp. phones but it drives my 32 Ohm Grado RS2e and Klipsch HP 3 with authority.   The manual  states 2w into 30 Ohm , 4 w max.....    The Quicksilver / HP 3 combo is awesome and the Grados sound better than they ever have.
