Headphoneus Supremus
I'm trying to decide among these: Questyle Audio QP1R, Acoustic Research M2, Sony NW-ZX2, and the Onkyo DP-X1. A&K doesn't interest me. Your thoughts?
Here are my parameters:
1. All music is in AIFF format, ripped from CD
2. Associated computer is a MacBook Pro, and there is no Windows machine easily available for any firmware or software updates
3. Headphone is the Oppo PM-3 (which can be run balanced, but I would have to order a new custom cable for a balanced portable source)
4. I have a Tidal subscription, but wireless is not necessary (nice option, but I have access to MQA via my Meridian Explorer2, whenever they actually have MQA-encoded music to stream...)
After reading hundreds of posts about all four DAPs, and others, I have gone around and around...
Thanks.
