I’m currently listening to my HD6XX’s with my Olympus 2 FIIO DAC and was wondering if I were to change it, would it impact the sound quality much? Or is volume the only real difference?

    They can be whatever they need. So long as the hardware that supports the DAC chip. Isn’t a complete pile of junk.

    Also have to remember that electronic parts are sold based on their production quality. A perfect DAC chip isn’t going in a $50 POS Chinese made DAC. They get the ones from the trash cans. The good chips go to Emotiva and Meridian etc. The premium brands.

      LOL. Emotiva isn’t exactly known for low noise or stellar performance, mate.
