Most POWERFUL DAC/Amp all-in-one?
Looking for the most powerful DAC/Amp "all-in-one". Any suggestions? So far it's looking like the Burson Conductor but that bad boy costs $1,850.00.... Hopefully something as powerful but not as expensive? Under $1200.00?- bareyb

[mini shootout] Desktop amping solutions for the HE-6: Nuforce Icon2, STA-100, and CEntrance DacMini PX
It's no secret that those seeking to amp the HiFiMAN HE-6 will veer towards speaker amps. However, it seems the more recent trends have been moving towards beastly current driven 100W monstrosities. That's cool, I've got no problems with that. I've played around with my fair share of...- Armaegis

M-Stage & MS II+ vs CEntrance Dacmini
After weeks of indecision, I've narrowed it down to these two setups. I like the flexibility of the Dacmini, but I also love what I hear about the M-Stage amp. I'm interested in good bass extension and crystal clear highs (I'm more of a musical guy than a neutral person) ...- roker

CEntrance DACmini vs Burson HA-160DS
I know the Burson HA-160DS is only new to market, but given it contains the same DAC and head amp as the 160D I thought it should be easy to draw a conclusion on the DACmini vs the 160DS. This will be used from a MacBook Pro to HD650's. BTW I already have the DACport and like the sound...- scottv50

Audez'e LCD-2 Rev 2 with CEntrance DACmini vs. NuForce HDP

Well, I received the CEntrance DACmini today and after a couple hours of A/B switching between the two amps, the DACmini is going back. ...- johnzz4
