Hey all,
After finally landing a decent paying job, I've been slowly upgrading my computer over the past 6 months.
I'm mainly a gamer (casual, not competitive) but I've recently delved into lossless audio (Rock, Jazz, and Electronica). As of now I'm running a Maverick D1 to my ATH-m50s. I just purchased a pair of DT990/600. I've been trying to figure out what amp I'd like to pair with it. I was looking at a Bottlehead Crack, but I don't feel I have the time to build it (50 hours a week at work, college, and trying to find time to spend with the girlfriend) and the Little Dot MkIII (the $45 shipping drove me away from that). After abusing the search feature to no end, I kept seeing the Schiit Valhalla being recommended with the DTXX0/600s.
I was about to pull the trigger when I did a search in the amp section, and what do you know, a Little Dot MKIII pops up for $180 with additional tubes.
My question is, should I just stick with the Schiit Valhalla? Or save $200 and go with the LD MkIII?
Thanks all!
