Hey all,
In my venture to move into the portable world (will be starting to travel 60%+ per week soon), I'm trying to gauge the value in upgrading a headphone amp/dac. I currently have the Nuforce uDac-2, which is nice...I've been plenty happy with it. I have the ability to get the upgrade kit to convert it to the SE version, which will give me Async USB, better innards and volume pot.
Worth noting: my plan is to get a pair of Ultrasone ED8s. Would I be just fine only paying $150~ for the uDac-2SE upgrade with the ED8s, or is it really worth it to upgrade entirely to something like the RSA Predator?
I've never heard the predator, nor do I have the ability to in my local area...would the improvements be dramatic enough with the ED8's to justify the price difference?
Thanks!
