Hi,

I was considering the mainline to power a hifiman susvara? Does anyone know if there will be sufficient power or should I try one of the bottlehead power amp (for speakers) - and use the susvara as a "speakeramp" hooked up to a headphone instead of a speaker.

Thanks.

The Susvarna needs about 5V to get to 110dB of output, which would be a lot louder than I would listen, and would be available from the Mainline provided you used a source with 2V of output.
