What is a good Breeze on Ali for the M8?

Hi, can  you give an example of "wooly", "dark", etc sounds. I am trying to associate the lingo with actual sounds to determine a preference myself. Thanks.

Alright...great. Been using my little USB-to-3.5mm (C-Media USB Headphone Set [Altec Lansing) to my whole house amp via 3.5mm-to-RCA cables and it seems good. Eager to see how much better one of these external powered DACs are.

ok, seems they offer an upgrade to a "Talema" transformer with that one. Worth it?

Hey, thanks.    Shoot, I messed up the links. It should be:   1) This 2) or this

Thanks, I if the cable is the same as the M8, I believe it needs to be 5.5  x 2.5mm according to this one on ebay. What do you also think about this one? I believe the one you referenced is for 220 VAC and I'm in the USA so would require one with 110-120 VAC. I tried to find that input voltage...

What would you recommend along those parameters?

Very nice. I feel a bit more confident taking the Sanskrit after reading that. I would probably go for the M8 if there was another Massdrop sale as I found out it was about $100 less than they go for now.   In that other thread you mentioned the following for a linear power supply. Can you...

Thanks for the reply. I think that would be my next problem, I'm not sure I know what I am looking for without knowing what I'd be missing from something else in and around the same price range.

Hi, I was thinking of getting an M8 based on the positive reviews around, however I have someone willing to sell me a Sanskrit 6th for $70. Should I put the money with the Sanskrit or go for the M8? I am using this for whole house audio pushed through a Dayton APA 150.
