Thanks kindly for sharing...I've only heard the FC6, which I own and love (well, I also have the Qudelix but only use that for BT). Am currently looking for a complement to the sound the FC6 offers for some variety - would the DC 07 Pro (which would be top of my budget) fit that bill do you think? Cheers

1) Onyx Alpha XI1
2) Colorfly CDA-M1P
3) E1DA 9038D

Onyx and Colorfly are very close, but Onyx wins it with it's details and airiness...

Where is the Cayin RU7? This one needs to be on everyone's try list.

For me, there's only 2.

1. Cayin RU7
2. FIIO KA13

I'll try the iBasso DC Elite soon since it's at the top of the list for two members here.

Haven't heard the opportunity to listen to it yet.

1. Goes to the DC Elite for power.
2. Goes to the W4 for refined sound and lots of features.
3. Maybe this will be no.1 in the near future. W4 Ultra.

Sorry, i had to edit my post. I had mentioned DC07 pro, but it actually was DC04 Pro

Ah cool, thanks- does that complement the FC6 do you think - or are they more similar than different?

I feel the LP W4 might be a better compliment to the FC6. My 2c. Others can chime in as well.
