As my man Wayne said in response to a similar question (on the Discovery Thread)...
Send them over and I'll compare them and tell you
Seriously, haven't heard any of them to compare, Have the Geek Out 1K and Special Edition, 1K is really nice sounding, Special Edition is really much nicer sounding. Have the CEentrance M8 LX, at least, I purchased it not too long ago, but didn't want to connect to my PC or phone, something wrong, so it is currently "in the shop", back at CEentrance, when it comes back I can compare. I do have some portable DAPs, Pono, DX90, love Pono but GO SE much better sounding (though it is a bit difficult to do direct comparisons, they are such different set ups).

I'm listening to my Giik Out Special Edition, nice Pono store hi rez Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. I started listening to the HE-560, just doesn't have the juice to drive it. Changed to Thinksound On1, really fine sounding. My question, (applies to some other cans I use, like the Koss ESP-950): Is there a setting to use this as a real line out, so I can just use the (fine) DA converter, run it into my Ray Samuels, HR-2, and have the juice to drive the 560 (or into the Koss electrostatic amp)?
Thanks
Hey, does your Geek Out SE sound better than iFi iDSD, AK240, Calyx M, Cowon P1??
