NAD D1050 DAC and headphone amplifier
How are you listening? usb,optical, or coax? I'm using coax a Tributaries 6 cable and I find it very full sounding not at all on the bright side and the bass is awesome. Everything else I find spot on nice preview. Although you probably should of posted this in the first 1050 post : )- Frenchwah

I picked the 1050 up saturday morning after auditioning it and the dac-it and dac magic plus with my dt-880 600 ohm hp. The 1050 was hooked up to a nad cd player with an optical cable, the sound...- Frenchwah
