Hi, I am new to high end audio equipment. My current sources are an iPod classic 120g and portable cd player. I would like to get my first high end source. My ultimate goal is to connect iPod-->iTransport-->DAC-->AMP. But I do not have the cash for that right now. Therefore I would like to get the DAC/AMP and hook that up to my computer. The DAC needs to have a USB and other input connections.
I am think of getting a DACMagic or Yulong DAH1 mark. The Yulong has the advantage of being cheaper than the DacMagic and having a built in head phone amp. Yulong has the disadvantage of being made in China. I am a little nervous about the quality of the Yulong and connecting it to my PC.
Which is the better DAC? If I go with the DacMagic which amp should I pair it with?
I strictly listen to classical music and I have Audio Technica ATH-A700 headphones.
Thank You
