So I have a pair of K701's I'm going to be mixing on.
When I got them I noticed the bass was quite lacking. I've been using a Fractal Audio Axe-fx II as a sound card. (very high quality converters) and since it has a parametric EQ in it, I used some pink noise to try to flatten the response a bit.
Now the Fractal device has a TON of power on tap and the EQ did help a lot. But it's no substitute for a good amplifier.
Do you think I should get a standalone DAC/Amp device or should I get just an amp and use it with the Fractal? I'm leaning toward just getting a DAC.
I'd like something with a pretty flat response since I'm gonna be mixing on these. But I would like some more bass as well.
My budget is around $200. Hopefully less though.
