My current setup is FLAC > HRT MS2 > M-stage Matrix > HD650. I listen to a variety of genres.
Looking at my setup, I tend to think that the weakest link is in the DAC choice. Hence, I wanted to get some opinion on some upgrade options I should look into within my budget constraints of <$500.
Ones that I'm considering:
HRT MS2+ (a big step up from MS2?)
Yulong D100 (QC and warranty issues?)
Schitt Bifrost (any good reviews/comparisons out there?)
Would any of these options be a great step-up from HRT MS2? Moreover, is my current system transparent enough to benefit greatly from a DAC upgrade? What other DAC options would you recommend give and take $500? You could say I'm looking for a more transparent system, better soundstage, and more detailed, less recessed mids.
Please Advise.
