I'm trying to put together phones, CD player and phone amp.

Regarding phones I decided to go with Sennheiser HD650.
CD Player - I'm almost positive that it will be Cyrus 8x.

Phone amp... I would like to hear suggestions on this one. By your opinion,
what would be nice match with HD650 and 8x?
(Musical Fidelity XCan, Creek, SinglePower, Grace 901.. something else??)

all comments are welcome!

thank you

Haven't actually heard the combination, but the MF X-Can v3 is said to
match well with the HD650, having a slightly forward upper mid that
apparently counteracts the Senns tendency to sedateness. This is
important, as the 650 can be boring with the wrong equipment.

I didn't know about Senns "sedateness". Thanks for the advice.
