Hi,
I am currently using an AKG K701 and looking for advice on a decent headphone amp (or DAC Headphone amp).
I check the amazing review on the Grace M900, (and will probably go for it) but not sure if I could get similar results with a unit half the price.
Probably not, but would it be audible with my K701? I have a basic audio interface at the moment Tascam US-1608 and use the headphone out.
I feel the unit is fine at lower levels but struggling a bit at higher volume.
I guess it is difficult without testing but any guidance would be appreciated.
Anything is better than what I have at the moment , but just trying to find out where the diminishing return on investment apply in my case.
AKG K701
PHONES Connector1/4" (6.3mm) stereo phone jackMaximum output level70mW + 70mW or more (THD+N 0.1% or less, 32Ω loaded)
Many thanks
