huangyong 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2004 Hello... went to "Singapore based Chinese Forumer" meet yesterday.. tried a few China DIY amps. AMAZING. Meet However, the most interesting thing is that they uses an intergrated tube amp this: to drive my DT880; and the quality of the sound is not bad either.. My question is... can a intergrated amp drive DT880?? is it harmful to my headphone? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2004 Can you clarify a bit further... Did you mean your DT880 was powered out of the integrated amp's headphone out or speaker outputs directly? Or was your DT880 plugged into the silver unit (headphone amp?) at the bottom which in turn was hooked up to the output of the integrated amp on top of the PCDP?
