Hey guys, this is my first post in Head-fi, but like many other first time posters I've been lurking around here for months now. When I first heard of the new Hifiman it seemed like the answer to my prayers. Since I am a college student, I am not near a "home rig" most of the time, so i wanted something like this with which I could walk around without sacrificing sound quality. From the reviews I have read, it is the best sounding DAP and should meet that first requirement just fine. However, I would like to be able to use this as a USB DAC with my laptop as well. So what I am asking is how does the USB DAC compare to similarly priced USB DACs. I know people have said it sounds marginally better than the Pico DAC, but I am sure there are other DACs in the $700-800 price range and if they sound better, I think they might be a better deal for me overall. So please let me know what you guys think
