Hey guys
So I just bought a Senn HD598, with it bought a Traktor Audio 2 DAC (96k\24bit). The sound IS better, but i just hear too much distortion [size=x-small]when I crank up the volume. So I decided I would buy an amp (Will that make a difference?). I am going to buy (in the future) a pair of K702, HD650\HD600, and maybe a 242HD or a 272HD. I want a good amp that can move cans like the K702 and the HD650... Listening to pop/rock/r&b, etc (Beyonce, Shakira, Demi Lovato, stuff like that), and some vocal-full songs like Adele. All from CDs at 320kbps from itunes.[/size]
[size=x-small]I want a good amp, that will connect to my DAC (which has only 2 headphones out (1/4 inch) and a USB in. It came with 1/4 inch to red and white thingy converter... If it helps[/size]
[size=x-small]I want it to be as cheap as it can be but still to be good.[/size]
[size=x-small]Up to about $250.[/size]
[size=x-small]Also, is my DAC any good, or is it worth trying to return it and buy a dac-preamp-amp combo like the NuForce U-dac 2?[/size]
[size=x-small]Thanks alot in advance [/size]
