Can anyone recommend me a headhpone amp? DAC not required.

Source: Pc, Andriod.
Equipment: Beyerdynamic DT990
Requirement: Something budget friendly that can drive the DT990s for best performance per buck, prefer warmer sound with lots of soundstage.

Kindly advise please

Hi,

Thank you for your reply!

Sorry I was inaccurate, I do have an existing entry level DAC, the FIIO E10K. So pairing these with the said amps would work well right?

How about Schhit Magni/Vali? Would either one of these go well with DT990?

Also, do you know any sources where I could find nice songs to test soundstage?

Hi all, need some help from any audiophile guru.

I'm currently using the FIIO E10K with Beyer DT990s.

The line out goes to my speakers and headhphone out to my DT990s.

I'm planning to get the Schiit Magni/Vali and more interested in the Vali due to the fact that it is a hybrid tube amp and might provide a more warmer sound.

If I do get the Vali, I plan to connect it through the line out of my FIIO E10K via 3.5mm to RCA cable. My only concern is the ringing sound that occurs with tube amps when you turn them on for the first few minutes.

-Would the ringing sound affect my speakers as well?
-Should I just connect my speakers through the line out from my DAC as per usual instead of RCA from the Vali to avoid the ringing?

Kindly advise as I've heard it would be better to output the amp (Vali) through line out as opposed to headphone out. If it makes no difference, I might as well use the headphone out to the Vali and use the line out from my DAC to my speakers to avoid the ringing.
