    IBasso DC-Elite . . . The no compromise DAC/AMP with a true Stepped Attenuator

    I think it's definitely not worth doing it unconsciously, it's better to listen first, because it costs a lot. In my opinion, the differences will be mainly related to the aspect of synergy and preference rather than performance. Even if you want to get 10%, which is not so obvious, in my...

    IBasso DC-Elite . . . The no compromise DAC/AMP with a true Stepped Attenuator

    If you hear a difference of 10%, I must say that in these circumstances, in my opinion, it is really a lot and I can only congratulate you. If you can't hear anything, it may be a matter of headphones... It may also be a matter of concentration, fatigue, mood...

    I really appreciate dc elite. I am almost certain that a slightly warmer source than the DC Elite (which is slightly U-shaped), with a slightly emphasized center, will release the mk3's potential in this area. Vocals (especially female) and brass instruments will shine, and the whole will be...

    Low, mid or high gain? I noticed that at high gain the sound is most balanced and even at loud volume nothing is sharp or piercing.
