Hello everyone!
I've been using hud-mx1 USB DAC for a couple of years now and I would like to 'experiment' with some better DAC. The number of different choices is way too large to find out about every DAC available so I would need your help.
What I'm using now:
- Audinst hud-MX1 USB DAC plugged into my motherboard via USB (no drivers/ Win 10 native USB drivers)
- Sennheiser HD 650 cans
Purpose:
- Spotify Premium
- Gaming
- FLACs
My requirements:
- USB
- Physical volume knob
- No drivers (if possible)
- Natural sound
- Rather small physical size
Budget: ~600€
Yulong D200 has been the most interesting DAC I've found so far. Matrix mini-i 2015 non Pro could also be good. To be honest I don't need speaker outputs nor DSD so D200 feels a bit 'paying for something I probably wont use for a very long time'.
Opinions?
