Hello!
I am considering portable headphone amplifier to use it with my iPhone/ iMac for Apple Music hi res audio .
My principal headset is the HD540 reII but also I use some lower impedance models of Audiotechnica.
I had already tested ifi hip dac (blue) and found the sound very good 😊 the only issue was related to the led indicator that didn’t change its color in the response to the audio source provided from my iPhone ( with Fiio k5 pro I don’t have this issue).

Now I am considering purchasing either hip dac 1 (blue, 90 euros ) or hip dac 2 (orange, 170 euros) . Would there be a big differences between them (which could cost additional 80 euros) for my setup ??
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers
