RS2i Setup?
Hey all, I'm picking up a pair of Grado RS2is soon, looking for an optimal setup. I want to spend $200-$300. I currently have a Fiio E7. Should I get a new DAC and an amp, or will the E7 suffice? For an amp, I have been considering the Litte Dot I+ for my new Grados. Thoughts/suggestions?- GrandeSwag
