Original gears:
DAC/Amp - Fiio E17 Alpen, which double as both desktop
Headphones - vmoda M100, Beyerdynamics DT 990, Sennheiser Momentum (IEM)
Speakers - Focal XS Book Wireless (thoughi only use it wired)

Latest purchase:
Bought Audioquest Dragonfly Red and Ultimate Ears 900s to improve my on-the-go music experience.
So far it has been great.

Next Wish:
1) Get a desktop DAC/Amp (<$400) to replace Fiio E17
2) Sound signature - tends to be bass heavy. Vmoda M100 is my fav gear here, and I only want to enhance the vocal part slightly without affecting its awesome bass.
3) Ideally the DAC/amp comes with balanced output, which is something I'd love to try next

Any and all advises are appreciated!
