I just upgraded my portable gear and the improvement was so big that i really need to do the same to my home system.

Currently i have x-fi music pro sound card where i connect my sr225. From what i have seen here the Little Dot I+ is a great amp for grado cans. Since i will have to buy things with some time interval which do you guys think is a better upgrade:

Get the Little Dot I+ and connect it to the soundcard and down the road get a dac or buy zero dac/amp and after get the Little Dot ?

Agreed. While I really want to try the 1+ as a amp in a setup much like that, I would have to agree and say source first.

x3. Save up for a KECES-151 DAC as your (secondary) source, and then purchase the Little Dot I+.

Thanks for the answers. I think i will get the zero with HDAM first them.

One question, do i need to solder the HDAM ?
