Hey everyone,
I decided to bite the bullet and grab a set of the HD800S while they’re on sale. My current equipment just involves the SMSL C200 dac amp which is powering my current headphones (ATH R70X).
I’ve been doing some more research after ordering the HD800S and I’ve been seeing a lot of people saying that you “need” a Tube Amp for these; is this true by any means? I don’t have much experience with them.
Better to read about it instead of spending 250€ minimum on an OTL amp lol.
And for the tube experience you can always add a bass shelf and maybe tone town the treble slightly.
But I really wonder how my 6XX would measure with the tube amp vs the FiiO. I can’t tell much of a difference.
