Hi I'm in the middle of deciding on the gear I want to buy. I'm leaning towards combo of Schiit Modi 3+ and Magni Heresy to drive Dekoni Blue by Fosex. But just before going with the order I started to thinking (and reading) about DACs. Currently I have Asus Xonar DX and I wonder: Will Schiit...

ok, thanks for your suggestions. I will rather go with Hel 2 or Modi (or some other device if I find one) because I wanted to have external device - that was one of the reason for the change. Outside of having free up PCIe slot I simply wanted something with knob sitting on my desk. :D Yeah...

Wait...so you're suggesting I won't benefit in any way from having Hel 2 or Modi as a DAC here?ould Also why Heresey and not 3+? I tried to understand the difference but both base description and the one in FAQ didn't explain this enough for me (probably my noobish heritage ;)). I thought 3+...

Hi I need your advice. But first things first: do understand that I'm noob (for example I have no idea what low and high gain does). :) My 40th birthday are coming so I though I'm gonna make myself a treat and buy some DAC/Amp with planar headphones to go with (always wanted to have one). I've...

Thanks, now I know everything!

I've noticed there are HE5XX from HIFIMAN. They are a little bit more expensive than 400i 2020. Could you tell me is the price difference worth it? I can't find any comparsion between those two...And it's hard for me two "guess" what's exactly is better in 5XX that requires more money. :P

I don't want to spend more money to get amp for the headphones. I mean, I'd like to have something like that, sitting between Xonar and my headphones but I can't afford to buy one. ;) Thanks! Yeah, I tried to look for that but I couldn't find. Hence the question here. :)

Hi I always wanted to try planar technology but the price was always the barrier...But I found those headphones locally and they quite cheap, considering being planar. So I'm considering buying them and wanted to ask for your advise in terms of what is going to drive them. I have PC with Asus...
