Hello all,
I'm trying to snag some headphones off of amazon for $200-$300, and I'm trying to find a heaphone amp and DAC combo (don't care if I have to get both individually or if it's an amp with the DAC integrated) that works well without bringing my costs too far above $400. I'm thinking of getting a Q701 or HE-400. Ideally, though I realize I'm shooting for a low price-point, I want something that doesn't impart too much sound of its own, i.e. added warmth, though it wouldn't be the absolute worst if it did a little. Also, I really don't know what kind of inputs/outputs are required and what amps come with, so if you were to let me know what cables it would take to hook the amp and DAC up to my iMac G5, that'd be awesome and you will make my day
