I am currently looking for an amplifier for HD800S. I am considering the JDS Atom, Schiit Heresy , Schiit Vali, Monoprice Monolith THX 887
Looking through different websites, many people suggest that the HD800S is hard to drive / sounds bad with amps like the Atom and Magni. However, from what I see from its measurements, it looked to me that it can be driven by the amps i am considering. (Although some people pointed out that being able to drive isn't the same as sounding good)
Is it worth spending more for the THX 887 or the Vali when I have amps like the Atom and Heresy? If anyone have experience with those amps and driving the HD800S, please let me know.
