Wow the 540 huh, that’s a nice vintage Sennheiser you got there!Any suggestions on how to best use the HD540 with a portable setup? Thanks!
(I’ll keep the A5 in any case, considering it’s so neutral.)
So I think you’d be hard pressed to find anything as clean and powerful as the A5 for portable use. I use it with my hard to drive Hifiman HE-500, and it powers them perfectly.
i think the issue you were having with the Q3 is the output was too high for the A5, so you need to lower it to a normal gain so it doesn’t distort, which you perceived as being warmer.
