Hello Head-fi members
Im new to the joys of hi-fi so I built a budget system.
To date it consists of
Grado Sr 125i $140.00
Hlly mkIII $198.00
What look like somewhat quality rca cables (directional, braided jacket) $0
Muse audio mini tda 1543x4 dac $39.00
audioquest optilink g $28.00
sound blaster xfi optical out (0 enhancement of course) $49.00 I think
I use itunes to play wav files all levels full
$454.00 as of yet
And to my ear it sounds bright and lacks in low end, but sound stage is huge and on the right tracks sounds amazing.
Any tips or advice on set up would be greatly appreciated.
Also I will so post pics of the inside of the hlly mk III soon (im scared to break it). See you all at can jam
