Hey,
I am currently looking to buy a DAC/AMP combo for my desktop setup. I plan on using them with two bookshelf speakers (Wharfedale Diamond 11.2/12.2 depending on which are cheaper or Elac Debut 2.0 (not 100% certain on which i'll get)) but I also want to be able to connect my headphones to the DAC/AMP combo.
My Budged is around 400-600 Euro for both DAC/AMP & Speaker
I am probably going to buy the AIYIMA A07PRO as my speaker AMP.
As for the DAC I've been looking at the S.M.S.L SU-1, Topping DX3 Pro+ and AIYIMA DAC A5 Pro Mini, former of which does not meet the requirement for headphones, but has a compelling price& good reviews/tests.
I could not find any review or tests for the AIYIMA and the Topping is kind of expensive.
Does anybody have a recommendation?
Does this setup even make sense at this price range or should I just get a pair of active speakers? Any recommendation on this front?
Greetings,
Schmar
