I'm a little confused.com,
The 6moons review states that the HDP is a good dac, better pre-amp, and best as headphone amp. Yet some people on other hdp threads say that they didn't rate the HDP's headphone amp but thought the dac was excellent! I think i'll go with the 6moons review for now...also it's worth mentioning that the HDP won a 6moons award! Realsization.
In other news I'm really enjoying my Fidelity Triples IEMs which arrived recently (only had to wait a month from sending impressions to receiving them!). I needed to burn these in for at least 300 hours before they sounded good - before that they were about as good as apple earbuds (seriously!).
Plugged into my cheap and cheerful Zero Dac (with HDAM) they sound great, full, and somewhat euphoric for such a cheap amp. But with the uDac they sound a bit bass-lite with a narrower soundstage (but with much improved imaging and separation).
So all that to ask: will the HDP widen the soundstage and help the bass be less polite?
Thanks in advance.
