Hi people I hope Im in right place to my question. I will buy a new dac to my smartphone. I like big soundstage and neutral detailed sound. My candidates: 1- Ifi nano black label (Burr-brown? Chip) 2- Any dac with 2 cirrus 43131 chips and 2 opamp chips) 3- Any dac with single Ess Sabre...

So I wanted to buy my dad a sound Interface solely for it's playback quality over a onboard-card. I'm used to listening through my once Babyface (which kinda burned down) now Babyface pro FS, also have a fireface 802 at home. You can say I'm pretty happy with rme's line of products and their...

Hi everyone. I'm using the Topping DX3 Pro+ for professional work but I also work on the go quite often, so I bought Fiio K3 Dac Amp. I noticed a significant difference in sound between them, so I though to ask for a recommendation for a budget friendly compact Dac Amp.

The title is quite self explanatory. I don't know much about audio and my knowledge about DAC/AMPs is quite small and recent, and I was wondering what DAC/AMP combo I should buy. I'm currently stuck between 4. SMSL C200 Qudelix 5K Schiit HEL2 Sound Blaster G6. If you have any other...

Don't want to pay mojo prices but is this really the only (decent) battery powered dac/amp that will take optical input? For reference, I want to use a WIIM mini plus the mystery device as a set up at my office desk /home desk without the need for a power plug (I can run the wiim off a spare...

If one were to get a single product to improve the sound from a PC for listening on mid-range (B&O Portal/Audeze Penrose) headphones (mostly listening to Tidal, Youtube, gaming), what would provide the most noticeable improvement assuming you spent the same $? For example: Dongle DAC/Amp (E1DA...

Hi, new to ASR and appreciate the plethora of sound system information! I'm setting up a desktop sound system for my office and, after exploring different options, landed on testing out the Loxjie A30 all-in-one (headphone quality an issue, I know, but is passable) and the SMSL DA9. Since I...

Hi I would like to ask you a question: I recently bought the hifiman he400se and I want to know if the PreAmp Earman TR-AMP can amplify the he400se to its maximum volume? TR-AMP SPECIFICATIONS: HeadAmp THD+N (2.7V, 32R) <0.005% SNR >114dB Dinamic range >107dB Power: 16 Ω...

So I was wondering what I should expect as far as the headphones output differences. Are they big? Where would it be audible? Is the E10K actually more powerful? Would it distort quicker? If anyone could explain that and maybe refer me to some stats so I learn - that would be great. Trying to...
