tfw schiit stacks are like 200 good boy points here

remind me what youve got?

hektik

some chink AK4495SEQ dac

and a beta 22 kit

My setup right now are Fidelio x2s with the fiio e10k going into my desktop

18 fucking watts unbalanced like god damn

and i think like 58 watt balanced

might upgrade to balanced later and use it as a speaker amp

what chink DAC is it mate?

its a jp dac isnt it

oh i got the same headphones transience

What you mean by balanced? Balanced inputs and outputs?

ive got a jap headphone dac/amp as well as a chink one that ive been trying out lately

+ another like $40 for transformer

though ive probably got a few around the place

hows it compare to MODI?

no idea, still in the post

ahh ok

just using my $8 PCM2704 thingo for now

is ek10 usb powered?

you mean e10k?

yeh

sorry

ye

it is

E10K? It is

thats cool

i like it

think bout it this way

usb power is pretty gross a lot of the time tbh

Q1 is like the portable version with a battery iirc

if you were to get your first headphone amp/dac then you should get a USB powred one

so that when you upgrade, your old unit is for travel

i was gonna get a Q1 but i got one of these fuckers
