I had/have the Headroom Micro DAC and the Schiit Modi. The differences aren't huge but are very obvious. Everything sounds a little deeper, everything seems to decay better, there's just a little more of everything. I'm pondering all kinds of ideas on what to do about an amp. I never really intended to buy the Lyr, just saw too good a deal on the FS forums and couldn't pass it up. I do love it, sounds better than anything else I have and the Amperex Orange Globes make my DT880s sound great. However, I still get this feeling that my HE-500's can sound better. I've been thinking about a Mjolnir, but I'd also like to move away from Schiit (nothing against them, they've been good to me but variety and the spice of life and all that).
Very nice. A few questions if you don't mind. What did you have before the schiit DAC, do you like it, and are you thinking of upgrading your amp?
