Are there headphones that work with glasses?
Hey guys I was wondering if there are any decent headphones that I can wear while wearing glasses? These over ear headphones seem like they might not work. My brother has some kind of over ear AKG's that were 150 or so but they don't work with glasses. I am looking for headphones for general...- GerGa

UberBifrost vs Emo DC-1
Just talking about sound quality of the two dacs here. Has anybody had a chance to compare these two. After looking at stuff a long time I think it has come down to one of these. I saw some posts on the DC-1 forum but I am thinking those people may be a bit biased. Stat and feature wise the DC-1...- HPiper

Best ~$600 USB DAC?
I'm on the search for the best 'cheap' DAC ~$600. I've read all the threads. I haven't heard any of the following though. I've gone back and forth in my head with the following: 1. Concero: Always heard great things. Don't need the 'HD'. 2. Herus: Haven't heard much about it as just a DAC...- TooPoor

Choosing between 3 DACs
I have done my fair share of research and have my selection narrowed down to the Concero, Arcam irDAC, and Emotiva DC-1. I know these are different in terms of functionality, but the only thing I would NEED is the DAC via USB. The headphone amp of the DC-1 would be a bonus. I can't find any...- davidvanderbilt

Well if any of you have been on this forum much for the past few weeks you may have noticed that I have been having some issues trying to get a decent DAC that WORKS.

December 2013 Mid-Level DAC Comparison
Folks: I intend to do a comparison of mid-level (~$500-2500) DACs in December 2013. I will test multiple DACs and keep the one I like the best. Period. Everything else gets sent away. If I end up liking my current $200 Emotiva XDA-1 best, that's the one I'll keep and everything new gets...- Gary in MD

All in one Dac/Amp
I have been reading a lot of reviews of combo units (dac and headphone amp) and they almost always seem to end up saying that either it is a real good dac and an average amp, or just the opposite. Has anyone ran into an all-in-one unit with both a good dac AND a good amp? I am looking for...- HPiper

Over the last several months, I have auditioned a number of DACs, seeking to establish a baseline for my Emotiva DC-1, with which I’ve been very pleased and believe it is very clearly a value leader.

Emotiva Stealth DC-1 DAC
