Texture, soundstage and bass? I'm definitely not regretting pulling the trigger now. All are things my 325is love, need and want.

I did not, however, order the Astrodyne due to budget issues (it was either get the Ultra Micro DAC without it or get neither). What sort of improvements can be found versus the already-quite-good wallwart?

I listen at home with a pair of Grado SR325i goldies or Sennheiser HD650s plugged into a bottom-heavy Headroom Micro Stack. Mostly I use a computer as a source, but have a vintage Technics turntable for when I feel like vinyl. I like metal, goth, trance, industrial, synthpop, classical and downtempo.
