Hello,
As the title says, I am currently using a Schiit Fulla 2 with a Vali 2 amp for my desktop computer. I'm very happy with the sound using my HD598 SE headphones. Would there be any benefits to replacing the Fulla 2 with a Modi 2? I understand that the Modi 2 Uber would also give me more input options, but I only planned to use USB to keep things simple. Considering the Fulla 2 and Modi 2 both use the AKM AK4490 DAC, would there be any noticeable improvement in sound quality? I figure I will keep the Fulla 2 as a portable DAC/amp if I decide to replace it, but I'm just unsure if its even worth spending another $100-150 on a different DAC for my current usage, which is just gaming and Tidal HiFi listening.
Any input/advice would be appreciated!
