Hello!! This is my first post here; I am a Jazz/Rock/Classical music lover, owning currently very little equipment, basically just an Arcam A18 and a pair of two-way speakers, and a almost historical Yamaha HP2 headphone.
I am interested in a portable DAC/amp in the <$200 range and evaluating the devices in the post title.
I wonder, the iFi nano iDSD is the most expensive of the three, and has a number of great features such as extensive support for HD formats; but basing a judgment on sound quality alone, is it really better than the other two? Is a higher price justified? I am interested in a comparison for both PCM and DSD as well, where applicable. (I have not checked the iBasso supports DSD.)
