    E1DA DACs Discussion Thread (PDV2, 9038S, 9038D, 9038X, HiFiToy, HPToy)

    Can anyone see any issues with using the E1DA 9038D as a source for a discrete headphone amp? Am I missing anything here? To explain, I'm headed back into the office in the new year and figure I might take my iFi Zen Dac in and make it a fixture. I'll leave the iFi Zen Can Amp at home but was...

    iFi ZEN DAC discussion + impression

    Have just completed a downsizing process where all I'm left with is the Zen DAC, Zen CAN Amp and three sets of headphones - a simple, beautiful sounding set-up that has really helped me survive work from home. Thanks iFi 😀

    Intro, Suggestions for a AD900X / A990Z fan

    Hi all, Hope life is treating you well. Posting because I'd love to access some wisdom here. I've been into music and quality audio for quite some time and I'm generally happy with things as they are, but one area in which I can't seem to find much joy is headphones. I've tested, borrowed...
