Can you choose between opamps and discrete?

I got the DIR9001 chip put in. Its quiet neutral. With the usb it sounds warmer.
What? DIR9001 is for spdif (optical/coax). How does it make usb sound warmer lol?

Anyone knows is the rca line out variable at stock or do I need to change it? Anyone knows how, manual doesnt help?

quasio: Nice write-up. I think you first summary point is important -- good headphones have to come first. I re-visited my original headphones with Audio-gd's Sparrow versus the headphone output of my MacBook Pro and came to much the same conclusion. In the end, I think going from headphones like yours to better headphones as well as a good DAC and amp that matches well with them (as well as your musical tastes) will give the most significant improvement.
