Since I got my new DAC (behringer fca202) a few days ago, Ive been experimenting with my 120 ohm adapter and am liking the sound of the adapter vs. straight. I'm not sure which I like more yet though, as the difference is small.
BTW this DAC is light-years ahead of my on board sound card. The highs are less grainy and distorted. The noise floor is lower, and the details are much easier to hear, less hidden. It sounds more analog, less shout and harshness. The bass has better texture, tonality, and is less distorted. My on board card makes the low end muddy and too warm actually. The DAC did NOT increase or decrease bass extension. It just cleared a layer of mud over it.
The DT48 by far responded the most to my DAC upgrade vs. my other phones. It really likes the DAC.
I am very exited with my new gear. The chilly, hair raising musical moments are more frequent now.
