So I have started thinking about dacs/amps to connect my iphone 6 listening to itunes music (256 kbps) to my new he-400i. My new headphones just showed up in a brown box and are telepathically telling me to leave work early to try them out at home I may upgrade my source and music quality in the future but , I might not.
Does anyone have any thoughts regarding these two devices? There is a $ 250 price difference (Magni Uber / Modi). I am not sure it makes sense to spend more on the amp/dac than the headphones.
Do you think average ears could tell a difference between the two from the digital out of an iphone on HE-400i's?
As they say, "you don't know what you don't know" so I expect the Grace to be a great unit but could anyone comment on what the extra $250 buys? It see it has some effects options which might be fun, and it looks amazing. Grace is also highly regarded.
I am still leaning toward the Schiit stack (feels odd to even type that !!) so that is the price to value to quality point I am at right now.
