Comparison: M-DAC vs ZODIAC GOLD w/VOLTIKUS vs HEGEL HD20
This is a very well written review. I just want to remind people that none of these DACs were working at their best.

Comparison: M-DAC vs ZODIAC GOLD w/VOLTIKUS vs HEGEL HD20
I never use the headphone output of M-DAC. I campared it to my AMP when I got my M-DAC, driving two full-size headphones, and I found my AMP is much better. So if you have a relatively high expectation of your headphones, just get a independent AMP for them.- alavan

DT-880 or DT-990?
I used to own all these phones. The 05 DT880 and DT990 use the same driver, but DT990 is definitely clearer especially for bass. Besides, the 05 DT990 and the old DT990pro are totally different Phones, their dirvers are not the same.- alavan
