#11 Violectric HPA V550 PRO: $3,599.99 Amazon eBay
Pros: Violectric rates it at 4,700 mW into 32 ohms and 1,450 mW into 300 ohms, enough to drive nearly any headphone, and Audio Science Review measured a SINAD of 111 dB, clean for nearly all listening. It offers 6.35 mm, 4-pin XLR and 4.4 mm balanced headphone outputs, RCA and XLR inputs and outputs, and a 256-step relay volume control with a remote.
Cons: The Topping A50 III rates higher and measured cleaner in Audio Science Review’s tests for a small fraction of the price. It is an analog amp only, so you still need a separate DAC.
