Hello HeadFi-ers, first time poster.
I created this account to ask what’s your opinion for upgrading from a Fiio Q1Mk2.
Jotunheim + Modi3, or Topping DX7Pro?

Read a lot of reviews, watched a lot of youtube, but I’m none the wiser; people rave about both, people hate on both, nobody compared them directly.
Headphones: Drop HD6xx Sennies.

thoughts?

thank you!!

And get a balanced cable for the HD66X

I haven’t looked at Monoprice much, mostly worried about QualityControl and Warranty.

Thanks for the suggestion though, I’ll check it out.

As your going to use the 300-Ohm HD6XX headphones, which seem to do well with tube headphone amplifiers.
Maybe you should be checking out the Schiit Valhalla.

I have been looking at that but I've been warned I'll get the itch to tube-roll. How is the Stock Valhalla compared to the Jotunheim?

Have not used either unit, so can't help there.
