If i want a more mellow and natural sound, which one is better to buy? The Asgard 2 amplifier or the Modi Multibit dac? My stack is now Modi2u/Magni2u. According to my memory, my old Asgard 1 had a mellow and natural sound that i loved very much.
Thanks,
If I may make a slightly different suggestion.. if you're after a natural and mellow sound, you might really enjoy a Vali 2 with an EH 6CG7 dropped in there. Don't fret that it's a tube amp, it doesn't need babying, and that tube is is cheap, and will last you about 5000 hours and cost about $20. You'll get a really pleasant sound, with a lovely airy and relaxed sound- and enough power to drive things like the inevitable HD650 without embarassing itself (see also the rather wet fart bass that the Magni 2U gives the HD650).
It's small, cheap and also looks really cute stacked with your Modi Multibit. The only danger is that you can lose track of the time listening to it, it's such a friendly and asbsorbing combo.
