Hello everyone,
I am very new to audio and all this, but I very much appreciate my sound (And thank Head-Fi for that)
Now, I have never owned an Amp or DAC, but I know what they do. However I'm very confused in what to invest in, and it seems people generally get Amps before Dacs (Could be wrong)
My Tech: (Barebones ATM)
Galaxy Note 5 Exyonos With Wolfson DAC
KZ ZS5
Rock Zircons
Re-Max D610
Beats Tour 2
Now I rarely use my PC for listening to music, and I stream all my music via Spotify (Extreme Quality). I also use a few FLAC files for listening offline as well.
Now can anyone suggest what my next upgrade should? I also have a very vague idea about Headphone Impedance, so any info on that is appreciated.
So do I invest in a new DAC or Amp with my current items? Or am I better off just getting better and more expensive IEMs/Headphones?
I mostly use IEMs as I'm on the move, and very rarely use Headphones. Any suggestion or guidance regarding this is highly appreciated
- RomStar
Edit: Budget Around $200-150 (Either IEMs, DAC or AMP)
Preferences: I prefer clarity and crispness, not into excessive bass
I also like neutral sound signatures, i tend to listen to a lot of genres of music
Genres I listen to most: EDM, Rock, Indie/Alt Rock, RnB, Rap (No Classical)
