I suppose my budget is flexible, but I’d like to spend no more than 2K on both amp and headphones. I like the tube sound as I use a VAC and Harbeth monitors. I’m flexible though, but I’ve always preferred tubes.
Any good tube headphones and headphone amps for vinyl playback?
I have a pretty good analog setup: SME deck, Koetsu cart, Pass Labs phono preamp. I'm not sure if this is a thing that many people do, but I'm interested in listening to vinyl exclusively through headphones. If I connect a tube headphone amp to my phono stage to listen with headphones, will it be too noisy and not worth it? Most headphone listeners use digital playback which makes sense. Does anyone have any good experience with listening to good vinyl playback via headphones that is quiet?
