The primaluna's headphone circuit is really good. I really like my Evo 400i

In the mean time you can put the Mytek in digital or analog volume mode and turn the gain all the way up to -6dB.

I am extremely happy with the new Mytek Brooklyn dac+. Very transparant and almost Lp wise sound. On the other hand, the Mytek in combination with a Musical Fidelity M6i is a little bright on my Klipsch Palladium towers. So today I tried a Synthesis Roma 69DC tube dac. Wow, this is a magical...

I did upgrade the Mytek to v 4.36 and did not notice any recessed and veiled sound.
