    Denon AH-D7000

    Currently watching a used Wa3 on ebay at the moment that is going for a nice price. Would this be a good combo for the Denons? I don't want them to sound to laid back but still love that warm sound. I'm just worried I might lose the Denons great treble if paired with this amp.

    Currently looking for an amp for my Denons (I am using an old NAD 3020i stero amp at the moment).     Has anyone tried these cans with a Schiit Asgard? I'd love to know if they're a good match.

    Ok I tried the DAC on my other stack system. Works fine. Actually more than fine, it sounds amazing! So unfortunatly it is a problem with Windows 7. I think I may just buy a decent soundcard with an optical port, should improve the quality aswell.   Can anyone reccomend a cheap(ish)...

    Also there is a high pitched humming sound which I guess isn't supposed to be there.
