I currently use a Xonar STX to drive my Sennheiser HD 650's from my computer, but I'm considering upgrading to a dedicated amp and DAC setup, and the Schiit products in particular caught my eye. I'm trying to decide if I want the Bifrost/Asgard 2 combo, or if I should wait a few months and save up for a Gungir/Mjolnir combo and buy balanced cables for my 650's. I'm eventually going to upgrade to something like an LCD-3 or some other high end planar-magnetic, but that's probably at least 9 months to a year away, after I get a better paying job, but I wanna hear some opinions on whether or not saving up for a balanced setup plus cables is worth it over purchasing what I assume some would consider a mid range setup much sooner. I don't have any real complaints about the STX as it is, though I've never listened to anything better than what I'm using right now so I don't know what I'm missing out on
P.S. If anyone has alternative suggestions for good amp/dac setups around this price range that are worth looking into (or worth saving up for) please suggest them. I would prefer a solid state amp but I'm open to suggestions
