WTB: Headphone Amp / DAC
« on: December 28, 2013, 11:11:17 PM »
Looking for a tube or SS based headphone amp + DAC to use at the office. If you have one for sale, I may be interested.  Not to looking to spend a ton of money on this.

Thanks

I don't know why I help your lazy cheap mexican ass.

Buy this and a set of Mullards.  You're all set for around $200 *new.

Looks nice.   Bonus that it has a line in as well.   Have you heard it personally or is it just something that seems to fit the bill?

I use one at work.  It sounds very good, especially for the $ amount.  You can buy a set of military surplus Mullards for around $25.  That's what i'm currently running.
