I have the Sennheiser HD600, Neumann NDH-30, Audeze LCD-X.

I use these with my SSL2 hp out, and with Qudelix 5K.

I spoke to someone about my impressions and his first question was: which dac/amp? and when I told, he just winked.

So my question is: is the difference this obvious with a more expensive dac/amp combo? Should I spend another 6-800 euro to get one? Do your headphones open up/perform that much better?

    The more expensive, the lower will be the (perceptive) difference… commonly, tbh most of the things are like this, cheap to intermediary have huge difference, then intermediate to premium is less, maybe who is deep into this area can tell the minimal details, but the rule remains the same

    If you need an cheap, intermediate or premium DAC, the best one to say is yourself, most here are always pleased with Apple dongle, maybe even myself, but since the headphone that seems to be perfect for me in all aspects is DT 880 Pro so i will choose Focusrite Scarllet Solo since the warranty (3 years) and customer service are extremely excellent, also cause focusrite is very well recommended for beginners, as myself
