After some careful deliberation, I found that the vaccine for my wallet wasn't strong enough, and now I see it suffering. Perhaps the best thing was to give it a mild shock treatment, in the shape of a little upgrade
Then later on it will recover in due time
Right now I'm listening to a pair of Allen & Heath XD-53 through a NI Audio 2 DJ and a PA2V2. But I have a feeling that these cans can perform better, if I fed them more juice. So I was looking at Audinst HUD-MX1, looks quite interesting. I also took a look at the upcoming Fiio E11, which also looks nice.
So my doubts are how different does the HUD-MX1 sounds compared to the Audio 2 DJ, how different might Fiio E11 be from PA2V2 (based from specs, since I think no one has yet had a pre-production E11 on their hands), and if it would be a good enough upgrade to go from Audio 2 DJ + PA2V2 to a HUD-MX1. And would it be a good idea to put the PA2V2 between the HUD-MX1 and my XD-53? I've read that an amp could be used to add some coloration to the HUD-MX1.
