Hey Head-Fi
 
I'm looking into a new DAC to combine with my HDVA600 to drive an HD800 or sometimes an HD650.
 
I'm currently using a CA DM+ running balanced through the amp to the phones.
 
I listen to a lot of different music and do switch between the phones though spend most of my time with the HD800s on.
 
I'm not unhappy with the CA DM+ per se, but I'm feeling the itch to upgrade. 1k$ to 1.5k$ isn't out of the ballpark. 6k$ for a Zodiac is though... 
 
My chain is in my sig. 
 
Looking forward to comments. Thanks!

I'm seriously considdering buying a HDVA600 + HD800 and am also wondering wich dac will be a good match that isn't too expansive.
I was thinking about Audiolab M-DAC. I know people are very positive about the M-DAC, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a good match.
So I hope someone has experience with this setup and can tell me if it's woth it.
