might as well just get a pre-amp, amp, and dac then

which is of course expensive af

if youre only running headphones, a standalone preamp unit is pretty useless since 99% of headamps have a volume control built into them

im running two sets of speakers and a headphone

just get an integrated power amp and run from the line out

which is what im doing now

from my fulla

i dont really see your issue then lol

no issue

just if i for some reason want a different amp

i cant just change the amp

just chain it

all dac units have amps in them

unless the chip itself does line level

ugh but then he's gotta buy $200 interconnects

Placebos are a genuinely good for something like perceived sound quality

**cough** $1k oiled cables

first of my chi-fi is coming in

its just 3.5mm connectors but

i feel it

@Windatica whats the sound like

<:thvnk:332928260004642827>

sounds sturdy, but i wish the contact points were bigger and the included rubber grommet things were thicker

it looks like i NEED conical tips to use them

Is the RevoNext RN-QT2 the best chi-fi IEM around currently or is audiobudget a shill?

nigbass: T2 with bass mod

balanced: QT2

They're both pretty good

Really loving the balance of my swan D1010 speakers, so i'll probs go the QT2 unless theres something cheaper i find. Cheers

The 90 dollar dap that beats 700 dollar phones that beats 3000 dollar daps

big boy shit
