I currently use ATH-AD900X's for everything. Don't have any other headphones. I'm going to purchase a O2+ODAC today for my PC. Questions:
1. Where should I buy it or does it matter?
2. Was looking at JDS Labs website and there are different customizable options:
The O2+ODAC will be used for both my AD900X's and TH-900's.
I have finally decided to pull the trigger and get this amp/dac because I've been listening to my 900X's on my iPad lately and realized how much better they sound on my iPad vs my PC (PC using very old Realtek onboard sound).
Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any help/advice/suggestions/informations/recommendation/tips/opinions etc. It will be very much appreciated.
Sincerely,

2. Was looking at JDS Labs website and there are different customizable options:
- Rear mounted vs Front mounted power jack. Any difference/benefit?
- 3.5mm vs. 6.35mm (headphone jack output) - I need 3.5mm for both AD900X and TH-900, correct?
- DAC line-output = Default 3.5mm vs Deadicated read line output 3.5mm vs Dedicated rear RCA line-outputs (I have no idea about any of this)
- Gain = Medium (1.0x , 3.5x), Standard (2.5x, 6.5x), (1.0x, 2.5x) (also have no idea what to choose)
