I'm a noob to the Head-Fi scene.
I picked up some Grado 325is to listen to some great jazz in FLAC format.
Up until this evening, I've been feeding the Little Dot MkIVse tube amp with a FiiO L6 lineout from a Sansa Fuze player. The sound was great, but I needed to push the amp to about 3/4 volume to get the sound levels I wanted.
Today my PS Audio DLIII DAC came in and I connected it to my laptop to play the FLAC files...
HOLY COW... what an amazing difference. The clarity, the range improvement, the increase depth of the soundstage... and I'm running the amp at only about 1/3 volume level for brilliant sound.
I'm not running any equalizer settings... just normal feed levels on everything and it's beautiful.
My favorites...
Art Blakey - A Night in Tunisia
Duke Ellington - Malletona Spank
Count Bassie & Joe Turner - Role 'em Pete
