Amps are nice for line-out signals, high-ohm headphones, etc lots of good uses!~ yeah, not to mention these kinds of amps: ![]() Doesn't even output one watt. But you bet your ass it sounds great. | ||

I was using audio technica ath-m50's for about two years prior, but I don't need a closed design any more (no roommate) and I found their clamp force fatiguing after a couple hours. The 32ohm version works just fine out of my Soundblaster X-Fi but this NuForce Icon uDAC-2 has been tempting me. I'd recommend the Audio-GD Sparrow. Wasn't a fan of the first uDAC. Don't think it would well with the DT990 either. | ||

I DJ all over, perfect for that but also awesome for any type of audio. Closed, but not heavy on the head and comfortable when worn for for hours on end. All parts are replaceable too, but I think that's normal for Senn's? Oops spoiler cos I'm noob and can't resize... + Show Spoiler + ![]() | ||
