Got a cMoy BB 2.03 2x9V and for some songs the bass is sounding a little more crackly that I think it should, my question... is this a lack of sufficent power from my amp or an issue with audio quality
 
Here's the Song where I first Noticed the lack in bass
 
Nujabes Luv Sic Part 1 [Shing02] I have a 16bit flac I listend to as well as going to youtube and auditioning a 720p song there which had the same bass issue ...
 
So lets assume my amp is the issue
 
What do you guys think of the JDS Labs c421 AP8620?
 
My budget is $150 and I'm gunning for a used c421 which might be $140 if the seller is feeling nice <3

Sounds really clear and punchy on my PRO 900's and FiiO E10, no crackling or lack in bass.
 
Does that help? How are you enjoying your DT 880's anyways? Maybe it is just the video you choose...how does the one above sound?

What are you using for a DAC?

The Hifiman is my DAC, but I also tried it on my PC with FooBar I think the issue is with my File... I did a spectral Graph and no clipping but I guess the Flac I had was bad >.> I tried it with a few different cans as well as soem friends
 
but lets get back to amping the Dt 880 [I don't care for a DAC with the Hifiman]
