Hi all!
Recently I have purchased an ELE DAC in hope that I will get some sound improvements. However, I don't hear any significant differences in sound quality comparing to internal DAC of my MBP. My setup is MBP/iTunes -> ELE DAC -> Beyer DTX 501p. I have tried to play both 256kbit AACs and losesless ALACs. What possibly is wrong? ELE DAC is no good enough, or MBP built-in DAC is very good, or DTX501p haven't got enough resolution, or my ears?? Even tough I don't consider myself a hifi pro but I hear differences between different headphones which make me think this is a technical problem rather than perceptual. So any suggestions would be welcome!
