Im in search for a mid sized phone amp without DAC with 5-10watt @ 50 Ohms continius.

It shuld be compact like: 200 x 250 x 60 mm give or take and solid state, tube or hybrid does not matter as long it got power.

And if its black its a plus

Priceclass: 1000-2500 $

And you dont need to name Violektric , Cavalli Audio , Sim Audio Moon , Pathos , Woo Audio.

I was going to say Schiit Ragnarok, but you said compact...how compact do you need it to be? Why do you need a smaller amp to drive (I'm assuming) your Abyss?

Maybe the Master 9, Master 11, Precision 1 or Precision 2. or a welding machine.

What about this mid sized 8 watt balanced amp for the Abyss?

Is it any good value or just Poor quality junk if you compair Audio-Go with Cavalli, Violelctrik and other quality brands ?

Anyone bought from them?

Audio GD has a good rep, seems like excellent service and solid products.
 
if your headphones aren't balanced then the C-2 will be a better option imo, if they are balanced then the NFB-1.
