I was wondering what's a good portable DAC and Amp portable solution for my situation. My portable source would most likely be a laptop and/or iPod. I currently have only closed headphones: Beyerdynamic DT770 and Ultrasone Pro 900. I plan to add another low impedance headphone to my collection, the Grado sr325is, rs1i, or Alessandro ms2i or msp. So this question would probably suit the headphone I plan to get a bit later.
I havent really done much research on portable amp/dac solutions but here's a few models I have my eyes on:
Ray Samuel Audio Emmeline “The Predator”
HeadAmp pico upsampling
iBasso D10 Cobra
iBasso D3 Python
C&C XO+
Octavart O1
Storm B-3 Pro
StyleAudio Carat-Topaz
Yulong UA188
Like I said, I haven't really done much research on portable dac/amp. Budget is a little tight for me, but I was considering getting one. If I was planning on saving up for one, then I'd like to know which was the premier choice to go with. I was thinking about the Predator, pico and Carat-Topaz, but with my budget, I sort of hesitated. Unless someone can enlighten me with some knowledge that the price truly justifies the value of it.
Yeah... Head-Fi hasn't been too nice on my wallet
especially as a college student. Let's hope the next purchase I make will bring me into pure bliss and make me forget about life's problems.
