My main gear currently are an Ifi Zen DAC and some nice Hifiman 4xx plugged into them.
No matter what, I keep coming back to these two. I have other gear, not this is the one that pleases me the most. It is not my endgoal, but it’s superb to my ears.
I took the advice of the know-it-all’s on this sub (while ignoring the normal interesting people) and run the following stack:
tv (SE rev2) -> phone cord (galvanic isolated) -> kazoo (zeos collab), sitting on vibration isolation milk crates.
