Its been awhile since Ive posted anything, Im using this setup these days for my PC Audio.

Im been using the Mitsu M-A01 mosfet amp for several years its 70 watts pretty much outclasses any of the bigger
modern receivers Ive owned so far. Being part of a Compact separates system it fits in nicely in an office system.

Big thumbs up for the old school, me likey!

Nice picture!

I personally don't think that would be worth the upgrade. The A5+'s are active speakers, so you'd upgrade only for the DAC section and not even the amp.
In my experience the difference between DAC's is not worth upgrading over. Others may disagree, but these are my findings.

In addition to that, the biggest difference you might hear when changing DAC's is an increased dynamic range (decreased noise floor). Which is not really all that important when driving speakers, since most of the noise will probably be lower than the ambient noise in any case.


I'd suggest getting a nice pair of headphones first, and then see about upgrading your source.


Are you Dutch by the way? If so, you might want to check out this thread.
I could be mistaken, meaning you speak German instead of Dutch.

Haha, well the Koss Portapro sure beats just about anything in terms of value, or so I've heard.
Are you planning to buy something better any time soon (you are on this forum, after all)


Welcome to head-fi by the way. We're sorry for your wallet.

no, i bought them from here - http://www.production-room.com/genelec/genelec-short-table-stand-8000-406/ .

Since you do have active speakers, maybe you try out one of the versions of HRT's Music Streamer products. Higher quality DAC in there than either the E10 or the D1. More expensive does mean better right?
