So the Multibit option is the way to go for sure? I have not read much comparison yet on that but I've looked at it vs gungnir and doesn't seem to be a $400 difference unless going balanced.
I have been considering getting it ($600) with a burson soloist ($400). Should I spend more on a DAC than the amp? One person said to spend the most on the headphones and amp and to cheap out on the dac was best? This would be to go with a Hifiman he400i and Fostex th900. There was a convincing review on here by sumofallparts saying how good the th900+burson solist was. Would that combo be good for $1,000?
Now that they have Modi Multibit you can literally get a Multibit DAC for $250.
Personally i think that can't be beat at that price.
Magni is $99, or you could use your O2DAC's Amplifier stage only since you already have it. meaning you could get a better DAC for $250 only.
I wouldn't go crazy on the higher end setups unless you have some really really high end refined cans with some serious power requirements.
