dac/amp

I have tried doing some research on this setup, but havent found anything conclusive. While on paper there should be no issues since the BTR7 can deliver 320+320mW through the 4.4mm jack for a 32Ohms Headphones. Ive still seen people say that this isn't enough. The sens on the Sundaras is 92dB...

I have a Fiio BTA30 DAC/AMP (bought mainly for my PC) but noticed that when I connect my TV optical output to it and then from it to my A/V receiver, the sound quality improves noticeably compared to when my TV is directly connected to the A/V Receiver. My question is whether it is worth...

Hey all, I currently have a pair of XENNS Mangrid Tops and a Schiit Magni Unity (with DAC). Definitely overkill but they're so good. However, I am unable to use a Mic with this configuration, hence I am looking for an Audio Interface. I realised I could still use my Magni Unity if I connect...

I have been reading for hours and I have a question: I have tried the Cyrus Soundkey DAC/AMP with the Samsung Note 8 and it is excellent for music but the Note 8 sends phone calls to it's own built-in speaker/earpiece. I have also found out that the Samsung Note 8 comes with these USB-C...

Goodmorning everyone! I would like to buy headphones and a dac / amp (if needed) for a total budget of € 300, maximum € 350. I would use them mainly for playing games and listening to music. Both open and closed back are fine, as long as they are comfortable, especially with glasses. I tried the...

Hello everyone! I have a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro (250Ohm) and in search of a good Dac/amp or a Dac + Amp Combo with a maximum budget of around 200€. From what I found the Topping DX3 Pro + and Ifi Zen Dac V2 are the best choices, but now which one should i choose, and why? If you have...

Hi! I own a pair of Sennheiser HD 599 (50Ω). I used to drive them with my Behringer UMC204HD (which I mainly bought to record). Recently I've figured out that they actually sound better on my desktop PC output. The bass is richer, the volume can get much louder without distortion, and they seem...

It is time to hype another upcoming product and inevitably be slightly disappointed. The FiiO K9 Pro is a flagship desktop all in one DAC/Amp that has the potential to be an endgame device, if it's priced affordably. From Head-Fi SPEC： 1,Linear power supply, supports 115V/230V power supply. 2...

I live in the EU and ordered the O2 + SDAC but now see that it only has a US plug and the EU plug will either be $16+$26 shipping, or $23 in an EU store. For this price it will be around the same as the Fiio K5 Pro. I see that the Fiio has a stronger Amp but want to know if the Amp is better...

Hello, I just ordered my first pair of real headphones and now I need a Dac and Amp or a dac/amp combo for them. I currently have a bad 25€ amp/dac from amazon for my Sennheiser Momentum. Ideally my budget would be 200€, I spent 160€ for the headphones, I don't really want to spend way more for...

Hello, first time posting. Are there any scientific up or downsides to having DAC/Amp combos over standalone units? I was thinking along the lines of power delivery, lag from source to headphone or Interference + Distortion. I have no background in engineering. I'm looking forward to upgrading...

Looking for recommendations on an AMP/DAC combo for my HD6XX. Looking for something with XLR balanced.. I'm looking at the Monolith THX 788 and the Monolith THX 887 and heard about the THX 789. Not sure what to get, it seems the 788 has XLR IS NOT balanced? Looks like the 788 XLR IS balanced...

Hi, I'm a newbie and I'm looking for a cheap small portable DAC/AMP that can playback DSD but I'm quite confuse because on the specs of a lot of DAC/AMP only show thing like 24/192 Khz (like this one...

Hey everyone! Is the Sabaj Da3's Amp/DAC much better than the Shanling M0's? I'm anticipating this response, "Those two aren't comparable!" I'm brand new to this wonderful world of audio, so I won't be sad if I hear that :) I know the M0 has a DAC/Amp built in (in addition to its other...

Hello everyone! Iam thinking about a nice DAC/amp combination to pair with my incoming 58xx and I am struggling between these two options (considering money): Topping dx3 pro (First version!) - used for 6 months - 150€ Topping D10 + JDS Labs Atom - new - 230€ (80 + 150) I really like the...
