Hello everyone,
thanks for your attention. 5 minutes ago I came across this forum and it seems to be populated by a bunch of competent and nice people, so here I am seeking for help.
I have a pair of 250 ohms Beyerdynamic dt990 pro I bought an year ago, more or less. I think they are a really great pair of headphones for the price I've paid.
As they are quite difficult to drive, I bought them in pair with a Fiio olympus v2 dac/amp thinking it would make a good match.
But I don't feel satisfied anymore with that amp, I feel like it's time to make a kind of quality jump(through tubes amps possibly)
I have this Bravo v2 in mind. I saw it's prone to be modded, which is nice as I have some (albeit limited and academic) electronics knowledge.
I saw it might not be too much reliable too, but the price seems good and I can't go over 100 euros anyway (110 $, I'm guessing).
Do you recommend this amp for a budget upgrade? If not, what do you recommend? Will it make a difference with the fiio i already own (and would it be worth the money)? Will it be broken in 6 months or something like that?
I've seen some popular suggestions:
Project Sunrise, but that's way too much expensive
Xcan v2, same as above; plus I'm from Italy and it's sometimes difficult to get things from outside UE
