What's the budget?

 

One of my favorites is the G1217 Project Ember, you can buy the DIY kit for $299 or the prebuilt for $349, and then another of my personal favorites is my primary, WooAudio WA7 Fireflies, but that's $1k, then spend $$$ on finding tubes you like the most.

 

If you can't tell, I love tube amps. But down to it though, we need a budget to work within. The O2+ODAC is a great little dac/amp for a decent price that is extremely popular. Of course though, the Schiit stack(be it Modi/Magni or Modii/Vali) would save you a little $$. Then on the lower priced side of things you have the ever-so popular Fiio line of product.

 

We need a budget :)

thanks guys 

my budget 170$ 

i can tell u from my experience that Fiio E18 is really good. price to performance ration especially these days cause of this sale going on is really great.

but i will tell you that its nothing compared to O2 and ODAC combo from Mayflower. the O2/ODAC is just cleaner, more fluid audio. i know its might sound really weird at first, i was also like this at first but after i listened to it, i can tell you that it really makes a lot of difference!

especially when u have a high end headset/phones to run. i see there is this sale going on at mayflower.if u can may be add a little, get theirs you will never regret that.

fiio is good also there is this boost and bass boost button which honestly, i have NEVER used. i use it primarily on my mobile which also adds some battery cause u can charge ur device with it as well. but its not as powerful enough. 

going O2 ODAC will help u in the long run because it is more powerful, its more refined sound and over all a better package.

The Schiit stack is a better value.
