thank you for the heads up…and welcome to HFG!
For any potential beginners lurking out there:
Liquid Spark amp, $75. Great starting point.
oh its finally back after being out of stock for almost a year? lol
Tried selling mine for around $75 in here months ago and no takers even though it was out of stock . It was my starting point to desktop amps and that is a great performance to price ratio right there.
still pretty solid for a warm sub $100 amp + has pre amp
I bought mine when it was still $110 and it’s absolutely still a great amp for $130
The 560S is going for $155 atm on Amazon.
EU: KEF LS50 (pair) - 649 Euro opened box
This is already posted elsewhere, but the new HiFiman HE-R9’s were on sale this morning and I assume still are. They are a dynamic, closed back headphone for a great price. Of course that depends on how good they sound, but the reviews are promising. At $369.00, why not?
for the Canucks on here… a lot of tubes have gone up on CAM.

$890 New, OB available for $839.
Grab an extra set of pads now for $79
Buy any dual 3.5mm cable in the world that you’d like.
If overall resolution, dynamic bass, midrange presence and no lack of treble detail are important to you - immense recommendation. Easy to power also.
Not for OTL, people that seek huge bass output (and EQ massive shelves), potential trouble with the most treble sensitive or midrange ‘honk’ sensitivity.
A comfortable, beautiful, do-it-all headphone at a great price from a seller with very reasonable policies. Lovely pads too, I picked up an additional set recently at the new $79 price, to me they are well-priced now and will probably become difficult to source affordably by the time you’ll need them.
That OB price is awesome!
Just a headsup if someone wants to know.
I bought the Sundara from Hifigo and it seems they are not an authorized seller according to hifiman. Did not get a 100 usd coupon from them.

This one 45% off, excellent amp.
I love mine!
noticed adorama had a closeout on the ifi xcan and tried the old trusty discount trick and tried it on a related item and it worked too lol.
xCan for $150

micro iDSD signature for $500 and i’ve personally owned this for a while for my active 2channel setup/headphones in the tinkering space in my garage and it’s pretty fucking awesome, especially with
small speakers for some reason. it’s stupid powerful for headphones and has all of ifi’s s-balanced and xspace and xbass and iematch stuff too which is nice and the xspace/bass is probably why i love it so much on small speakers because it makes them seem waaaaay bigger than they are lol.
I love the XCAN, I’ve got two of them!
