    Quote: Originally Posted by Victor Chew Some people have expressed interest of an iqube DAC. Most would like a DAC not to be incorporated in the current iqube amp. This they said is because the DAC will be for desktop use only as it cannot be used when on the move. I guess this sounds...

    All I notice the DT880's are available in three impedances, (from memory) 32ohm, 280ohm and 600ohm (..thinking of the DT880's in all-silver with a crimson headband ) There's talk that the 600 is the way to go, but I'm interested in the other end of the spectrum, the 32's as I will be...

    No it's a rite of passage, like circumcission. Not for the timid (don't be fooled by the size of that little box). Once learned, you will be renamed 'Hans of the Netherlands', your nickname will be Qables, and you will have to live that down 'til the end of time, as you will be an immortal like...
