Hello ,i would like to upgrade my current pc audio setup which consists of a soundcard asus xonar dgx used with a pair of vmoda m80's . The asus card lately produces high static noise. I would like to have a portabe amp/dac interface for use with my laptop,smartphone etc. After little research i ordered a Fiio E17k which was at a discount (haven't received it yet) ,but then i had second thoughts about it as i found out some desktop amp/dac's -but protable enough for my use- like schiit fula2 and i am confused between these two.
Also i found the Fiio e18 at a lower price than the e17k i ordered which seems better (and i like the volume knob better than the e17k's up-down keys
)
So what are the differences between the above and what will suite better my needs?
My budget is around 150 euros/$ and the main use will be music/movies and occasional gaming.
