Hello all,
I recently got myself a Schiit Fulla 2 as my first ever DAC amp and I have thoroughly been enjoying it. As others have stated, the sound signature of the Fulla 2 is a touch on the bright side and I would like to get my hands on a relatively inexpensive tube amp to compare and see which I prefer. Perhaps even give tube rolling a try.
I currently have Sennheiser HD 598 SE and HD 280 Pro headphones, neither of which are difficult to drive. Also using Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers.
Would the Fulla 2's DAC out to the Vali 2 be a good combination with my current headphones and speakers? Would I be losing out on anything compared to "going all out" and buying a Modi 2 with the Vali 2? I understand that the Fulla 2 and Modi 2 have the same DAC chip, the AKM AK4490. My primary focus is gaming but I do listen to various genres of music on Tidal HiFi pretty often as well.
Any suggestions and advice would be appreciated!
