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?

    HD600 user here. Had experienced with different dac/amps. I don’t think price matters for me, but the kind of tech used for each dac or amps was interesting stuff to explore. The best one for me was the cheap standalone dac from drop and the entry class level A from headamp. Ended up selling those as well because out of curiosity, I plugged my 600 to my sister’s macbook and shi…t. I’m a macbook user with no amp whatsoever now
