Hi guys,
Yesterday i've opened DAC world by trying AQ DragonFly with my Sennheiser IE 800 on mac mini
I really loved the sound which comed from dragonfly. So decided to purchase a DAC. i've found many alternatives to AQ DF.
But the problem is i'm a newcomer to all this and not sure what will be the best DAC option to use with Sennheiser IE 800 (16 ohm) earphones with mac mini ( and possibly with the iPhone )
The alternative to AQ DragonFly i've found:
- HRT MicroStreamer: i'm not sure how this DAC is better than AQ DF
- Meridian Explorer: 24/192 Audio Support ( but they say that due to the high output impedance it simply isn´t suited for most portable headphones )
- Resonessence Herus: - it also works with iPhone ( but official website also states that only 600 Ohms to 32 Ohms headphones supported)
Which is the best option for me? Maybe you know other DAC that can be used with iPhone and Mac with IE800?
