Hello,
I'm new to this forum and only about a year into this audio lark. Out of everywhere I have trawled this seems to be about the most down to earth place.
I currently have an SMSL sanskrit 6th (on loan) and FiiO E9 used as the headphone amp (on loan again). This is hooked up to my PC. I listen to it through Sennheiser HD558, also have some Fostex on order which I plan on doing the mrspeaker alpha mod on. I am wanting to replace the SMSL/FiiO with an all-in-one unit. I have been looking at the SMSL C200 and DL200. Thoughts/advice on them and other potentials in that price range?
I am also wanting to invest in a DAC/AMP for my android phone for when I am working on the allotment and walking the dog. I use my bose QC35ii at the moment, I was wondering whether their would be much difference between them and say a FiiO KA13/Q11/BTR5 with my Sennheiser's?
Might be worth mentioning why I have only looked at FiiO and SMSL. I am open to other options but I can get those two brands about 20% cheaper than the cheapest place where I live.
Look forward reading the responses.
