my trusted xifi-gamer just blew out on me.. was thinking of purchasing a dac/amp and was thinking of the ibasso d4 mamba. Then i came across the udac review by Faheem.
The thing is, i need a amp/dac to run my 5021 as well as headphones where in the udac fits in perfectly, but i need something to run my s9 too. My understanding is that, since the uDac only runs on usb, it cant be used as a portable for the s9 right? In that case what are my options for a desktop + portable dac?
I believe the icon mobile audio quality is lesser than the udac.. The desktop audio just cant drive the senn 485/555 which is my main source for movies and my bros shure 840 toa just cant do anything with on-board sound...
So , what other options do i have on a budget?? Also if i have to go at the 200$ range, then in that case what are my options and in that case they should be good enough to drive a senn hd-650 or beyer dt 880@600 ohms which is on my next buy list.. I'd prefer the el cheapo way first after reading the uDac review
Any suggestions here are highly appreciated//// Regards..........
