Hi everyone, first post here. I am looking for a new DAC AMP to power my headphones and speakers. I would like MQA although I am not planning on switching to Tidal until it is Alexa compatible.
Speakers = iLoud Micro Monitors
Headphones = Beyerdynamic T70 pro & Etymotic ER4XR
My budget is around $US 450. So far my top options (ranked) are:
- xduoo XA-10 for $CAD 600.
- Pro-ject Pre Box S2 for $CAD 520.
- Sabaj D5 for $CAD 600 - no MQA and too large for my desk
- SMSL M500 for $CAD 520 - I have had bad experiences with SMSL and haven’t read great things about this unit.
I’m also open to stack recommendations. Thank you for your help in advance!
