Hey guys,
I'm new to the audio game. I have an AKG 712 and currently a small fiio Q1 mark ii amp.
The Q1 is great for powering from my macbook and apple products but my gaming PC it fails to gain adequete volumes for games and movies/films. I have a PS4 Pro, Switch and a PC. Mostly the Pc will be used with the headphones but it would be nice to be able to manage multiple inputs.
What are my options in terms of DAC/Amps?
I've gathered I can either get an Atom (which just seems to get universal praise) + a Topping D30.
OR
I can get a DX3 Pro.
I do like the idea of having a remote to control the volume as I sit on a couch but its only 2-3 metres away so not a huge deal. I'm slightly worried about all the DX3 Pro build issue threads but I'm guessing any tech has its fair share of issues in the early days.
Which way do you think is best to go to make my life a bit easier when coming to connecting multiple devices etc.?
