I am currently using B&W P9 Signature headphones with a Cambridge Audio Dacmagic plus but i dont think it does the headphones justice and its now very old. Despite the B&Ws been only 22ohms the Dacmagic struggles to get massive volume. Perhaps they are too low as sure I read somewhere on a review on the DACmagic that its not recommended to use with headphones less than 50ohms

So i am looking for an upgrade please. We be using USB from PC as source. Music, films and games are the main sources.

Prefer DAC/Amp combo rather than two separates but not against separates if that is the better way to go.

Budget around £500.

So what should I be looking at please?

I do have an assortment of other headphones as well including some planar but none are above 50ohms and the P9s are currently my favourites.
