Hi, first post but lurking, reading (and spending) for a couple of months.
Started with the Monk+ and after trying all the similar budget ones have moved up the range a bit with my best being the Asura 2.0. It really is an awesome earbud, and I'm finding hard to see how much better something could sound to my ears (impressed with the Boarseman MX98s as well, but the Asura is just lovely). Listen to all sorts by the way, mostly classic rock / metal / power metal / the odd musical and a bit of Prince
So the logical next step to me feels like the Zen 2 (I'm a sucker for brand loyalty . My worry is over the level of amping required. DAP wise I have the Hidizs AP60 and the xduoo X3 (have ordered the Walnut as it seems intriguing and at that price worth a try). My only amp is a Fiio A3.
Any thoughts, would I need a new amp, and if so any recommendations?
Btw thanks to this thread and rediscovering earbuds, all the IEMs I bought over the last year are sat in a cupboard
