hi all, I'm every new to amp/dac combo thingy
and have some questions:
1. does dac play an important role of improving sound quality (mainly boost clarity and slightly for mids, reduce hissing and enhance transparency?
2. what a dac really does?
3. is it recommended to have a dac when my source is a handphone (sony ericsion w8/ nokia lumia 620)
i'm actually considering d-zero and e12 but e12 is a pure amp, and i'm afraid that a pure amp cannot improve the sound quality much with a lousy source. is this true?
i'm using ue700 and planning to buy sr80i
so i'm still finding an amp or amp/dac combo to improve the sound quality and reduce hiss
d-zero (which some says degrade mids) or e12 or any dac/amp under US$150(S$200) and can be brought directly from Singapore local stores, not online or shipped from overseas (i dun have credit card/nets/ or any card or paypal of these sort)
note: o2 is out of my consideration cos its too bulky and separate dac and amp too for having too many wires to deal with
