Ho hum
New Head-Fier
In my desktop headphone system I currently have NJC Audio Headphone Amplifier and a Micromega MyDAC.
It's a great little system and I do enjoy listening to my tunes through it.
I have come into some money and as a result I am considering upgrading it.
After doing some research online, the first logical one is to buy a NJC Audio DAC to go with the amplifier. This seems to get a lot of good chat and the two items would match visually as well.
An alternative would be to sell both the NJC amplifier and Micromega DAC and buy a RME ADI-2 FS DAC.
The RME also seems to generate a lot of positive chat on the various forums.
Both options would cost me about the same amount of money.
At the moment, I am leaning towards the NJC DAC. The reason being is that I want a clear as possible source, because I am quite happy using PEACE or other plug-ins to carry out the equalisation. I don't really need the bells and whistles that come with the RME.
Anyone have any thoughts about which upgrade path I should take?
