New Head-Fier
I totally feel the same about the FCN-10, even though I downsized my headphone collection to just the only one I liked the most, the LCD-4z. The FCN-10 is like an Apple iMac system, everything in one elegant well thought out package. I could have went with the FA-12 since the LCD-4z doesn't need much juice but the idea of cables, separate DAC's and space just put me off and I went with the FCN-10 instead.I have been revisiting the FCN-10 with the Sennheiser/Drop HD8XX.
Honestly, can't be so good, I could happily keep this as my only end game DAC/amp.
It is amazing what they have done with just two humble AKM4493.
I have installed the latest version of MoOde and I am feeding it with Silent-angel Bonn N8.
Magic.
Only downside is the heat, the room gets hot and smelly!
Every few days when I'm in the mood to listen to music I turn this thing on and I'm simply amazed at the level of sound coming out of this box. I've toyed with many multi thousand AMP's and DAC's and this seems to put out top tier quality sound with just two AKM4493's. I really wish I didn't sell so many of my HP's before trying with this amp however I have no regrets the LCD-4z was the only pair I liked. The only thing is after a couple hours this amp really heats up but good thing its winter here now.
