Yes, the Bryston BHA-1 one of the best balanced Solid-State head amp you can get ($1400). Slim profile with a clean look. Musical mid-range with plenty of inner details, great bass control and plenty of power to drive most of today's headphones very loud--but not the loudest level with the Hifiman HE-6
For comparison: at about half the price, the single-ended Vioelectric V200 ($850) has a smoother mid-range but slightly less power. The Schiiit Mjolnir is more exciting (at a mere $750) but limited to balanced output only and is more fatiguing in long listening sessions.
The balanced tube-hybrid Red Wine Audio Corvina (now replaced by the Cassabria) is the real competitor to the Bryston BHA-1 in terms of sonic quality and price ($1500). You get a very quiet (black?) background, liquid but still very detailed sound and just a smidgeon less bass impact than the BHA-1.
I use the Bryston BHA-1 with the LCD3 and the RWA Corvina with the HD800.
I hope this helps.
Omaha Sound Environment featured Bryston gear open house last night and said units should be available in about two months.
Can't find much on the web about it. I have a Bryston BCD-1 cd player
and am wondering about the synergy of it with the BHA-1.
