Hi,
Always a music lover, it must be over 25 yeras since my mission/cyrus audio days.
About 5 years ago I was using an iBasso D12 Anaconda portable dac/amp while working in-office. Seems like that last years I've defaulted to mobo audio out with some Audio Technica gaming headphones.
Dug out my Ultrasones and D12, and it was a revalation over mobo audio (again!).
Currently looking at the JDS Labs Element ii and Topping EX5. Would this be much of an upgrade over iBasso D12? Either option suitable to power the Ultrasones, and be able to hook up powered monitors if I go that way in future? Any better options for circa $400?
Thanks so much for any guidance now I'm finding my way back!
