It has a DC to DC converter.

 

Dollar for dollar the Meier-Audio Porta Corda II sounds alot better & VFM (it has alot more accessories that come with it). The only reason I would recommend the Total Airhead (Not Airhead) is if you need to smooth out harsh sounding headphones say the lower end Grados & only when buying cheap used.

its been said (a lot actually) that the 7506's are very harsh sounding so will this be the perfect companion to those cans?

Not if you change the stock earpads to Beyer (DT250 model if I am not mistaken). But I still feel the new price TAH vs PCII in the favour of the PCII. Just compare the components inside!
