I got a dt1990, and a FIIO e10K (DAC/Amp) and now i wanna upgrade.

(Combo)
- schiit modi / heresy stack
- topping dx3 pro
- topping E30+L30

or is there even better options?
thanks to yall :)

Assuming you have made up your mind to get a DAC and HPA with the $300, these are very good options. If you are not including shipping and tax you could get a modius and heresy, but the Modi is fine. Schiit Hel is another option; the scratchy volume pot is harmless if a little annoying.

so did you receive them? I am planning to buy these too and pair them with the hd600, so I am looking if we hear differences with or without them.
