Hi,
I started a thread trying to find the best amp/DAC combo to get for my HD650 for around +-500$. The more I read, the more my preconceived opinions change. I read on Head-Fi and Headphonia that the HD650 and the BottleHead Crack are really a stellar combination, but of all the threads I read praising that combination, not many of them would suggest what DAC to pair them with. I need optical and USB inputs for any DAC I would purchase.
Any suggestions? (And why?)
Thanks
Edit: I should not that at the moment, aside from the BottleHead + DAC combination, I am also considering to buy the new Audio-gd Compass 2 or an Asgard/Bifrost combo. If anyone as any suggestion as to which one is best and why, I'd be glad to hear it.
