Looking at the Audioengine D1 as my first DAC/Headphone amp. Is there anything better in this range that will power Sennheiser HD 558's and still allow me to expand to desktop speakers in the future?

Trying to bump up the audio from my 2008 iMac.   Here's what I'm looking at, I appreciate any help deciding.   Amp/Dac:   • Fiio E10 USB DAC Headphone Amplifier   • Audioengine D1 24-BIT DAC   • Schiit Magni/Modi   Headphones:   • Sennheiser HD 598's or 558's   Speakers:  ...

I'm looking for a desktop amp to use with my PC that will allow me to keep headphones plugged in and my Audioengine A2 speakers plugged in that has an output switch to go between the two. The Audioengine D1 would be perfect if it only had an output switch. I don't want to have to unplug the...

Ok so I'm new to this website but I've been reading the forums quit a bit for some product knowledge. I've just recently got into the headphone realm and purchased a pair of ATH-M50's (I know these aren't the holy grail of headphones...but I like them). I've been looking at DACs to get for them...

Hey guys, I've finally decided that I can spend some cash and get a nice audio set up for my computer. I'm looking at spending around 1k for a good audio solution. Note that I'm in Australia and we don't get quite as good value as the rest of the world :(    I'm keen on getting an external DAC...

Hippo Cricri + Headphone Amplifier/DAC Review   Introduction:   Jaben’s house brand Hippo maybe known for its rather impressive budget orientated IEMs but to me I know and love Hippo as the company that brought my current go to and most used portable amp, the cricri. It is cheap, tiny and...

You can refer me to another thread if you'd like (I'm sure there is one). I was looking at the Audioengine D1 but decided I didn't want to pay extra for a built in amp- also wanted the option to buy a tube amp later on, etc. What is a DAC that is comparable to the D1 that is nothing but a bare...

Hey all, been doing a lot of searching over the last couple days, and just cant seem to find what I'm looking for.  Here's what I'm working with:   I have a laptop and my PS3 at my desk.  I want to use USB out to the DAC from my laptop, and optical from my PS3.  Connecting to it I will be...

well im pretty new to the world of the audiophile and i am about to buy some headphones- ultrasone pro900 or sennheiser mm 500x. I was just reading about amplifiers and figured it was easier to just ask for suggestions and info.   ive seen alot about fiio products so i assume they are a good...

To the moderators: I understand there is a "Computer Audio" section, but since this could eventually lead to a discussion of regular DAC/AMPs, I put this here in the "Headphone Amp". If this is a problem, and requires you to delete or move this thread, I apologize for the inconvenience.    ...

I just posted this in the wrong forum... think this is the right one?...   Don't know if this is a dumb question (since I'm fairly new to head-fi, etc) but I have a receiver (Sherwood S-9200CP from 1981) that I use to occasionally drive my headphones (HE400 and K550), using the Audioengine...

Hello! I was wanting to know how I would possibly connect this: http://www.amazon.com/Qinpu-A-6000-Integrated-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B0057OI448 to my computer to allow me to play FLAC files off it. Would I just use an auxillary cable to plug it into my laptop and then plug my headphones to...

4Good evening everyone! I plan to get my A1 recently for driving 250ohm DT990. Any recommended DAC for this combination? Thanks a lot for answering! My sound source is CDs and I have approx $500 budget.

Hi all,   I'm using Windows 7 64-bit, no internal soundcard, and onboard sound disabled. After plugging in a Blue Yeti (USB) and a Audioengine DAC (also USB), it seems like I can only use one or the other:   I can listen to music, but then the mic will not record (Skype, Mumble, Windows...
