New Head-Fier
I'm sure this will start a religious war...not intended.
Looking to get the latest "best", without going completely insane, which I guess is a matter of degree...most people think I'm nuts with what I have already. (most of you won't think I am).
1. Source: Want to use my iPhone with Tidal or via MacBook. Prefer to avoid the analog output and go direct. If someone can tell me why I should buy an A&K device (or similar) to source...I'm open.
2. IEM's: Been using SE846 and JH16fp. Want to step up another notch...but not interested in $2000+
3. DAC/Amp: Have iBasso PB2 - have had others ALO Continental, FiiO. Interested in digital out from the phone to digital in - which I've already verified makes a big difference, but could be convinced otherwise. Definitely must be able to operate via battery. Prefer to have a balanced output. Could be two devices...prefer one.
Looking for recommendations in the same order....1) Source; 2) IEM's; 3) DAC/Amp
Fire away!
