Which amp for 560s

[Drake5]

Which amp should I get the sennheiser HD 560s? I currently have a focusrite 2i2 3rd gen but I think an amp will serve me better for music listening

I have budget of about £100, is the fiio k3 the best one to go for

Up your budget a tad and get the iFi Zen Dac. You may only be looking for an amp, but this will do it all.

That looks like a good shout... Stock seems limited though

One left here for only £109 ex-demo with full 12 months warranty.

You'll be hard pressed to get better than that for money.

Thanks guys. Just a thought, how much better do you think an AMP/DAC will be over my current scarlet 2i2 3rd gen?

Personally I think it will be a big upgrade, but truth be told you may not notice a big difference at first, one mans big difference can be another mans inconsequence. The manufacturer of your Scarlet recommends a maximum of 200ohm headphones running off USB and 250ohms off mains, that alone tells me that the headphone amp isn't that powerful in the Scarlet, with a pair of cans like the 560's for only £109 I definitely feel they deserve a dedicated headphone amp.

This chap is running Audeze LCD-X's off it which is pretty impressive.

Tell us how you get along with the amp if you've ordered one, also make note of the 'PowerMatch' setting, high/low for iems/fullsize headphones.
