warsurferX 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2008 You'll need to give us more info so that we can recommend. e.g. type of music/portable or desktop. Localy, check out Stereo@Woodlands or Jaben Network@Adelphi... you'll be spolit for choice. For reviews, you might be interested in reading through some of the older threads. head-fi.org is US-based and very active. Not sure if $300 is your absolute max, but getting a REALLY good amp will save you loads of money in the long run Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warsurferX 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) Well... from what I recall about the MFA3, it's a pretty neutral CD player (as in not very forward in its presentation, correct me if I'm wrong ) Are you looking for an 'exciting' sound or a more lush sound? A lot of people seem to favour tubes which will generally give a more laid back sound. Edited July 6, 2008 by warsurferX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warsurferX 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2008 Ermmm... try googling them? They are all very reputable brands There's a whole lot more actually. Head-fi's has got an extensive database of recommendations. Can't really commend on which is my fav because they all have their strengths and depends on the headphones and source used. But like what most ppl will advise, drop by Stereo or Jaben and try them out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
