Hey all, I recently received a loaner unit of the Oppo PM-3's and so far I'm very impressed. They sound great out of an iPhone and my MacBook Pro, but slightly less so out of my stereo monitors' headphone output, so I figure an investment in a desktop amp/DAC would be an appropriate purchase to help me get better performance out of my PC. Can anybody give their impressions on a unit like the Audioengine D1 or a similarly priced combo unit and how it sounds with the Oppo PM-3? The problem I'm seeing so far is that everything sounds a little restricted and the bass is much lighter than usual, like the headphones are struggling for power. So I'd like something that can shoot enough power to the headphones without much coloration as well as output audio to my stereo monitors through RCA ideally.
