I find the iDSD to be the one that really opened my eyes to the potential.
Wrap your head around the guy above talking about the Roxxanes which are very fine and very expensive. He/She is not noting a drastic decline in enjoyment from a set 1/10th the cost.
Consider that.
Seriously.
The stage is huge. It picks up lots of detail when fed off a good amp/dac. These were used sometimes before the iDSD nano and always after.
The power of the iDSD is not like a C5 or remotely near the iDSD micro but it is enough to get pretty loud....and very clear.
It's a personal choice but this one hit it for me.
True story:
I never noticed that I had been rocking them off my best setup until I posted a pic and realized....
hey that's the xb90ex in the pic.......until that realization I had just been rolling along listening to my best files of some hard to resolve guitar both fast (rock) and slow (acoustic 70's stuff)
For the money it's a no brainer. It will hammer and it can sing.
