    For an AKG K701, what would you use ? I looked up web, there are quite a few comments but most involving DIY a cMoy. I am not exactly an electrical handyman, so something off the shelf is preferred.

    What is this to be used for? Illegally eavesdropping on Amercan citizens? Listening for illegal aliens crossing the border? Hearing the screech of libpigs and neocons from the airwaves? What? What? Wha...

    What are you trying to do start some kind of poo flinging in here?

    Get a Creek OBH-11 or a vintage Marantz 1060 integrated amp. Those can be had on the bay for 100-200 bucks.

    If you wanna spend the extra cash, and go tubes, then look at the redone Fisher 500 tubed receivers - those are sweet!

    depends on how much you want to spend and if this is a portable amp. thats quite a good pair of cans to be properly amped by cmoys. the best overall amp that i have heard is RSA emmeline "the hornet". and it will run you about $350 new, a bit cheaper if used. Xin Micro is also an excellent amp based on reviews but the waitlist for his amps are usually a couple months.
