Reply to comment by KookDesigns in New Brainwavz on my HE4XX feel so much better than stock, and sound a bit better to my ears. by KookDesigns

See that’s the Tube amp I was looking at in particular, would you recommend it? And what did you sell It for?

Also, don’t fret about the Magni. It drives the 6XX very well. I have an SMSL SH9+SU8s and it has more power than my Magni/Modi stack, yet the 6XX sound better and louder on my Magni/Modi. Far better

I bought the Little Dot Mk2 for my Grado 225s, and up until now, haven't really had any other headphones that need more power. I found I could get by fine just plugging the Grado's into my Presonus usb audio interface.

Sometime between then and now, I got a Magni 3, which has been useful for routing my subwoofer to receive signal only when the headphones arent plugged in.

I've toyed with the idea of upgrading to the Magnius for its balanced ins and outs, but I don't need its extra power or size at this point, so it looks like the Magni 3 will be my headphone amp for the time being.
