Headphoneus Supremus
I have been comparing the Sony 1A and other daps using balanced and their balanced output. I have also burned in the SE but I haven't used it very much.Then today I started comparing to the Hugo using the optical out of the DX200. To be honest I like the single ended even more at this point. Very natural, open and spacious. I like it every bit as much as the Hugo. Very lifelike, transparent and very dynamic. I thought the DX200 would only work with the balanced mode for the Utopia, to have the open and dynamic sound and not the typical portable sound driving full sized headphones but in single ended I am very surprised. Detail is a little more spot on comparing to the Hugo as well. I am using Mango and the digital setting is 5 on the drop down screen.
