    DAC/amps with independent headphone and analog output levels?

    I'm trying to come up with a list of DAC/amp combination units which allow headphone volume to be controlled independently from the analog output level. It's fine if the analog output level is fixed (at the usual 2V unbalanced, 4V balanced). I want to connect dynamic headphones to this unit, and...

    [mini shootout] Desktop amping solutions for the HE-6: Nuforce Icon2, STA-100, and CEntrance DacMini PX

        It's no secret that those seeking to amp the HiFiMAN HE-6 will veer towards speaker amps. However, it seems the more recent trends have been moving towards beastly current driven 100W monstrosities. That's cool, I've got no problems with that. I've played around with my fair share of...

    M-Stage & MS II+ vs CEntrance Dacmini

    After weeks of indecision, I've narrowed it down to these two setups.     I like the flexibility of the Dacmini, but I also love what I hear about the M-Stage amp.   I'm interested in good bass extension and crystal clear highs (I'm more of a musical guy than a neutral person)  ...

    The CEntrance DACmini Unboxing thread (video)

    Totally ridiculous and unnecessary.  I bring to you my CEntrance DACmini unboxing video.  I usually say this is pointless but I find my self looking for them on youtube all the time.

    CEntrance DACmini vs Burson HA-160DS

    I know the Burson HA-160DS is only new to market, but given it contains the same DAC and head amp as the 160D I thought it should be easy to draw a conclusion on the DACmini vs the 160DS. This will be used from a MacBook Pro to HD650's. BTW I already have the DACport and like the sound...

    I've been running the NuForce HDP for a couple weeks now with my LCD-2's, and enjoyed the sound, but assumed a higher end DAC / amp combo would give me more.  Well, I received the CEntrance DACmini today and after a couple hours of A/B switching between the two amps, the DACmini is going back. ...

    CEntrance DACmini CX + Denon D7000

    Anyone who had this combo before, what do you think? (The 10 ohm output impedance would be great if you could describe) I checked the main thread of the DACMini, no info on this, so please do not refer me there, as is usually the case here.

    Dacmini CX vs M3 with Sigma PSU

    So many DAC choices, no where to demo them.
