Alright, here's the deal:
I need a headphone amp and a DAC. I don't care if they are together or separate, but there's a catch.
I need them both together to fall in at ~$500.
I just sold off my IE8s, so I only have one pair of cans at this very moment, but I'll be getting more, SOON. Here is what I expect to have:
Not interested in modding anything myself (or sending it out to be modded), but if it can be bought pre-modded, that's cool too.
BIG AMPSGET A +1 IN MY BOOK. YES, I MEAN PHYSICAL SIZE. YES, I'M INSANE.
I HAVE AN iBASSO D3, SO IF THE AMP IS NO IMPROVEMENT OVER THAT, NO THANKS!
EDIT 12/10: My wallet hates you. I understand $500 is probably just enough for an amp.

- Grado GS1000s
- Maybe AKG K701/K702
- Maybe Sony SA5000
- It would be nice if they could drive the HifiMan HE-5s, as I might get those at some point.
- Maybe Shure SRH840/Ultrasone HFI-780/Audio Technica ESW9, but I don't really care if the amps works with them, 'cause I already have a portable amp. If it does, it's def a bonus.
