I'm currently using the 2017 version of the Magni 3 (non +) & Modi 3 stack from Schiit. I recently got a pair of Hifiman Edition XS headphones to replace my aging Hifiman HE4xx. The Edition XS feel like an upgrade from he4xx, especially in clarity, but nothing majory revolutionary (dimishing returns and all).
I'm not lacking for power since I have so much headroom for volume even on low gain, but I do wonder if anything is being held back sound quality wise with my current amp and dac?
I imagine I would be looking at the JDS Atom 2 amp and dac stack as a more budget option or some of the Schiit products like the Midgard, Asgard, or Jotunheim for a more premium option. Do I have anything to gain by making a switch?
