My headphone and DAC/AMP selection

[TheOnlyJazzer]

Hello there, new member here, looking for opinions on my selection of headphones and DAC/AMP.

The headphones I have chosen are the meze empyrean headphones. And my AMP/DAC of choice is the
Sony TA-ZH1ES

Am I correct in thinking I can use USB to connect this AMP to my computer and my headphones to the AMP to listen to music and is this a good choice?

Sorry If this post appears nieave.

Thank you , James.

Yes that's how you hook it up. If you want to hook up anything else, consult the manual.

And speaking of the manual for the Sony DAC-HPamp...you might want to make sure you don't accidentally plug in your headphone's single ended 6.35mm plug (if it is a 3.5mm plug) into the Balanced 6.35mm socket.

Welcome,

So what made you choose the empyrean? Also why the Sony combo? Im just curious if you have heard them, or if this is just from reading. Cheers

Hello,

Nope, I've never heard them, to be honest I've just read a lot of good reviews about them; they also look awesome. I live in the middle of no where (literally on a small island) , so transportation to go to a place to try quality headphones would cost more than just buying them with a good returns policy.

Would love to hear some impressions of your Sony + Meze combo setup...
