The Uno drives my Hifiman HE400se very well.

You may like what you hear, but you are nowhere near utilising the full potential of the SE400.

I like driving my roadster but I'm nowhere near using its full potential either :)

Isn't enjoyment the end game?

But you do not put bicycle wheels on it or do you ?

All I am saying is that SE400 can be a much better headphone, when powered properly :L3000:

And, I do not mean sound levels, but sound quality, staging, instrument separation, bass, etc.

iFi UNO is cute, but it is dongle territory :)

Anyway, each to his own :v:

I hadn't thought about it but now you are giving me ideas.... Lol

On a serious note though, as someone who has the 400SE and the Uno, I agree that there are other options that can be more pleasurable but it's all about enjoying what we have.

I have hundreds of IEMs and many sources laying around but my wife is happiest with a set of $50 ones and her phone, amd I'm all about people being happy 😊

Can anyone elaborate on the spec/performance/use case differences between this and the iFi GO link? They are very similar in price.
From my personal perspective (Not an iFi one Persea) I see the GO Link as more on the go (I Need this for my phone) over what the UNO will bring to your home desktop setup. In terms of performance (Not having UNO, it would bring more too a wider range of headphones, including gaming).

So Go Link Simple add to phone solution (For better performance)
And UNO for home (also a portable solution) for better performance with a wider range of cans, as well as other benefits! Movie Music Game modes

Hope this helps

I have bought an ifi UNO and the DAC part is great! I felt the amp not that dynamic, so it's being used as DAC only. The volume knob fells great!
That's cool! Enjoy the music!

Cheers!!
