many headphone amps are one way, meaning that your voice will not go from your mic, through the amp, to the computer. So unless you directly connect your mic to the computer, make sure that any amp...

Thank you. If the headphones are good and you said cheap amps can drive them. Can you list the cheap amps you are mentioning?

The other one's comparable to this (@ $100) are...

Same. This and the JDS atom measure comparably, the atom is probably slightly better but not sure if it's $20 better. For $80 and FS this is a no brainer if you didn't already own an amp.

There are none. Go to audio science review. This and the JDS atom are probably some of the best sub $100 amps.

There's a tube-01 and some others out there that perform similarly, just have different features. You may get caught tube rolling also like I did, so plan on another $30. Good luck!

Is there a decent headphone pre tube amp that goes for $50-100, that I can connect to an amp like the atom?
Or am I better off getting some sort of dsp?
