| Is DEQX a game changer? 12-04-14: BifwynneSo far, I think the biggest bang for the buck lies with room EQ. That is what has the greatest impact on imaging and soundstage and tonal presentation. I concede that time alignment makes for purer, more "honest" tonal reproducti... | |
| Advice for a usb dac Along the lines of Mesch's question too. I suggest you look into iFi Nano DSD. Has the added benefit of driving headphones so can be used on the go. I use it in that fashion. | |
