    DAC for PC and/or *if possible* Portable DAC/Amp

    Hi All! I got my brand New Mac Mini stolen a while ago and was forced to pick up a "cheap" used PC (a Dell Inspiron 7720 17R SE with an SSD) since I couldn't afford a new or used Mac. Problem is that sound quality has taken a hit. So, even though I'm poor I'd like to get a DAC for my PC. If it...

    RHA T20i, Final Audio Heaven IV, Mee Pinnacle P1, Sennheiser IE60-80 or Shure SE315

    Yeah and the IE80 isn't really in my price range...at all... At ~250$ (CAD$) which most of the ones I list are hovering at, I'm already pushing it... @Koolpep you seem to know your stuff, especially when it comes to cold weather related issues...I never had any metal IEMs so it didn't even...
