No one responded in computer audio so I thought I would try here....
Thinking of getting a cheap DAC/amp for my laptop. I will use it into powered speakers watching video and with headphones. I don't want to spend heaps, just want something that will give an improvement on the laptop soundcard with headphone out. Looks like the FiiO E7, Fireye II and Icon mobile all fit the bill for around the same price. So I'm wondering how these compare as DACs and amps? Are there others I should consider in this price range?
At the moment my phones are Sony SA5000 and RE0s. Neither are super hard to drive.
