had all these dacs in succession: fiio e17k alpen (super) chord mojo (great but clunky) ifi black label (a joke, harsh, bad) the FIIO E17K was musical magic the best out of all these.... also for external speakers big difference....

Multi-IEM Review - 352 IEMs compared (Pump Audio Earphones added 04/03/16 p. 1106)
Looking for an upgrade on my SE215 - mostly between Custom Art Music One and something more expensive, like the Ei.3 or Westone 4R etc. Is the Music One a direct and worthwhile upgrade? Is Ei.3 a much better choice? Thanks- Nick-firestorm

Filters on classifieds (currency, type, price range)
I've been looking at the classifieds for quite some time now and I'm baffled to see that there are no filtering choices when looking at classifieds - for example, there's no way to limit your search only to UK or EU listings, a feature that would be quite useful to non-American people!

Best budget price/value portable headphones?
I'm looking for a pair of closed portable headphones, probably over-ear or almost full-sized, since they are highly preferred over earphones, around the price of 50 euros, max 80. Have to be comfortable and as good audio quality as this price range allows. Bass-head phones are best avoided. ...- Nick-firestorm
