” Will the ampsandsound Kenzie headphone amp be a great choice for you? I’ve written before that acquiring headphone products can be a “Jane! Stop this crazy thing!” habit. You could stop with any of the excellent lower priced amps and DAC/Amps I’ve reviewed (or choose one of the excellent Astell and Kern players, for example) and be absolutely fine. But we are attracted to this hobby for a reason, and this amp’s worth the extra money, to be sure. Some people will want an amp with more bite and slam than you might find in the Kenzie, especially with electronic and aggressive rock music. I’m listening to Mogwai’s “San Pedro” right now, and couldn’t wish for more, but I can see where some might want more torque in their tunes. I’m hoping that my chum, Michael Mercer, will be able to address this aspect of the Kenzie with greater facility. For me, though, this amp does many, many things exceptionally well, and rewards the listener with consistently fine, highly musical sound. Highly recommended. ”
