Long time reader – first time poster!
I've just purchased a pair of X2's and currently running them off a Xonar STX.
Things don't sound right, and I suspect it's due to the 10 ohm output impedance of the STX. Oddly enough it sounds great when plugged directly into an iMac – more definition in treble, tighter bass?
I'm looking for a suitable DAC/AMP – primarily for gaming and movies (I don't sit at my PC listening to music unless I'm working from home, and it's usually Spotify).
The Sound BlasterX G5 interests me – being 2.2 ohm and PS4 compatible, but I'm also looking at the Fiio E10K (I've heard the soundstage isn't that great). Anything around the $100-300 AUD mark.
Cheers!
I'm looking for this double Schiit Dac + Amp for my X2.
Dac modi 2 uber + Amp magni 2 = $ 248
Finds no better offer quality at this price schiit very good / great review.
But I'm open to suggestions from friends or offers used Please MP.
