Would this be a good amp for Audeze LCD-2C? Mine came with the balanced xlr cable and I am having a hard time finding something with a balanced output in this price range.

"The SH-8 delivers up to 600 ohms of output impedance". This is a bad thing. Output impedance should be as close to zero as possible. I doubt that the SH-8 actually has 600R output impedance. They probably meant that is is capable of powering headphones with an impedance of 600R. Also, the power figure is as vague as it can possibly be. For the love of god, have someone who knows about audio write the product description.

Would this be good for a starter amp? Also what would be the difference between the 3.5mm and 6.5mm jack?

Epicgamer7I think it would be pretty solid with a similarly priced dac. The difference is literally the size. 3.5mm is the standard on headphone jacks for phones, laptops, etc. 6.3mm is common on amps, guitars, and a lot of audio equipment. Most amps that have a 6.3mm come with an adapter for 3.5mm plugs.
