Okee doke. If I can't get the Fulla 2, which I actually can, would the Dragonfly be the next best thing?

^^

Only reason I said this is because my local HiFi shop sell the DRgonfly and will let me test and refund it if necessary. Bit more of a hassle with the Fulla 2.

 

well, I would rather get a Micca Origin+ over the Dragonfly, but after that yes sure get a Dragonfly.

Unfortunately, the Origin + suffers the same issue of availibilty as the Fulla 2. Just before I consider buying the Dragonfly, or testing it, are there any other recommendations whcih are available on Amazon UK? Thanks

Ok thanks alot for all the replies. I will try and test the Dragonfly when I can and might update the thread with my opinions if I can. Thanks again to everyone who replied

Dammit. I forgot to mention, for the price would it make more sense to buy a Fiio X3? From what I understand, it is a FLAC/ WAV player and DAC. By that does it mean it can be used as a DAC for another device or just for itself?

from my understanding, the X3 is purely a DAP(Digital audio player) and therefore not something you can hook up to your PC and use as a DAC amp, but either way it isn't that powerful at all.

Thanks. That cleared things up. I'll go test the DragonFly soon.
