Hello!
i am looking for a DAC that will complete my PC audio setup.
My gear is:
- Hifiman Edition X v1 (headphones)
- Singxer SA-1/Violectric V202 (AMP)
- Supra USB Cable
- PC as a source
I am asking for help/recommendation to find a DAC that will:
- be anti-sibilant, i am very "s" sensitive
- scoop/tame upper mids/lower treble, i really don't like shouty sound
- make vocals distant/pushed back, not intimate
- sound mellow, calm, boring and soft, not dynamic/energetic
I know that this is an unusual preference of sound. I do listen to music while working and such background/chill/ambient signature is what i am looking for ☺
If you are familiar with a DAC, that somehow suites my description i would be very grateful. My budget is about 700$ it can be less than that, i am not chasing absolutley best detail retrieval. I can also stretch quite a bit if there is a golden solution that costs more.
Thanks and have a nice day!
