Hello guys,
I've been comparing this combo today, I want to simplify my desktop so I'm planning to keep only my Motu M4. The headphone volume knob at 2 PM seems to do the trick for my HD6XX and LCD2 Closed... previously with my Focusrite 2i2 the headphone output was not enough.
On a TOTALLY SUBJETIVE note, I tried back and forth between on various songs and I cannot feel much of a difference, I did notice difference from other amps/dacs going to the balanced combo.. but not this time. My source is Spotify Premium which I'm happy with.
Am I missing something? Someone maybe can educate me a bit in terms of what songs and areas to pay attention to in order to notice a difference?
Otherwise what's your opinion on keeping only the Motu M4? I don't think I have another use at the moment for the combo as I have a pair of Edifier S3000 PRO connected to my TV using optic as they have their own DAC/Amp internally.
Cheers!
Update: I do notice the difference now after some more extensive testing. Namely, clarity and separation if I can describe it in a way. If someone can affirm this from Amir measurements? I'm not that good at interpreting the data.
