In Reply to: Pionner SX1050 Receiver as headphone amplifier for Sennheiser HD800 posted by cjspu on March 6, 2016 at 07:19:39:
Sounds fantastic with Naim Headline. Much touted Woo Audio amp sounded soft and turgid on the HD800. I certainly didn't care for it.
What possibly matters more than the amp is a better source for the HD800. You can always upgrade the source and keep the Pioneer.
