Thanks one more time for spendig time doing comparison, your advice is so appreciated
That is a smart move! The default Opamps are quite nice and the Zero improves greatly with 100hrs under it's belt. After that, is the time to evaluate and decide what is next, if anything.

The build of the Zero is what gives it so much potential. The 1% components and dual mono headphone amp, gives us a little more latitude with Opamp rolling. It is a very nice unit with potential written all over it.

I also think Lawrence is right, at least 50% of the time. MANY Zero owners have found the OPA627s on the adapter in the DAC, to be the superior DAC output sound. Combined with a pair of good Opamps in the Headphone amp, the sound can be quite nice for most headphones.
