i was thinking about picking up a self powered firewire interface to replace my current Hot Audio straight DAC, i have a set of KRK Rokit 5 G2 monitors and the hot audio is quite basic plus it lacks hardware volume contols and advance features aswell as a headphone out and mic in,
i was looking for something in the 100 to 200 euro range, and i was recomended the Echo digital Audiofire 2, which i can get from the UK at around 160 euros,
but then i saw an offer at a german webshop with the ESI Duafire for 105 (basicly half priced)
now, i have no comparison point between both of them becuase im new in this, aswell as not knowing how much improvment is it over the Hot Audio DAC,
so im asking, keep the dac ? which of the 2 i should get ? maybe theres a better option ?
