I've heard a lot of good things about both of these DAC/Amps, and they're going for around the same price on eBay (~$150-170 shipped). I'm looking at the latest versions of each (OPA627 and USB model for the Zero, MK2 Special Edition for the Aune). Has anyone used both? Just wondering which of the two is better. Unless there's something better for the price, these are the two DAC/Amps I'm primarily interested in. They'll be hooked up to my PC. If it helps, I'm using my D2000 headphones currently, but I'd like to purchase something that can be used with and sound good with a wide variety of headphones.
The only other option in this price range is something like the Xonar STX or the Auzentech Forte, but I'm more concerned about straightforward sound quality and driving headphones than I am all these other features that sound cards offer (ex: EAX, Dolby stuff, surround sound, etc.).
I do believe both of these could also hook up to my stereo receiver for my home stereo setup, correct?
