I agree
I would say amp before dac for me

Edited. Sources make more sense because it can be a DAP, for example
But honestlyā¦ With W2 I donāt think u need anything elseā¦ << IMO
@Resolution can also add somethingā¦ He has more experience than I ā¦
Unless u want to listen to your IEMs on your desk
I mean that little beast is GREAT
Iām always at a desk. Either home or office. On the move I have W2 and a DAP.
I just wanna explore the scaling and stage. And I wanna join the cool guys club!!! (and have an amp ready for the open-back spree that will end up happening)
You called the wrong guy. Heās gonna say buy it. Either A90 or go Burson Soloist?
Oops
Well then desktop Amp+Dac make sense for youā¦
Topping has some really great, and cheap dacs
I know that this is a extreme example but I just got an old iPod Photo (Classic 4th Generation), just for the nostalgic felling and I had in memory that this iPod sounded really good (it has a Wolfson Dac), but on man there is a night day difference even compared to my Fiio K1, Mele has no bass on the iPod (and Mele is a easy to drive IEM), everything sounded congested.
So I think that source do make a difference but I think that for modern amp/dac at some point the diminishing returns hits, especially if you just use IEMs.
After 100-200$, dimishing returns hit HARD on sources. A DAC like ZEN V2 will take you places
Yes, you are right so many IEMs do really scale with better sources ā¦ But typically for me the higher price IEMs they do scale really well and respond to sources differentlyā¦
At what my dear?
Most IEMs are easy to drive, but they pair really well with amp. BTR5 or Qudelix 5K can source them easily.
Ummm @nymz ā¦ He wants to get a nice stack for his deskā¦
Please donāt say A90ā¦ Make it lessā¦
Oh, I doubt he wants to hear from me. I think heād rather hear from you. If he wanted to hear from me, I already would have heard about it. I get PMās from @nymz every few minutes. Heās quite annoying.
Right, only we are allowed to be the bad asses sporting A90 + D90 for IEMs around here.
I wanna hear how does EJ07m scale with better sources. Iād love for it to be portable so I can bring it to office aswell or stack with dap.
Fish memory letās just blame it on advance age.
True, Iām annoying.
But, butā¦ I wanna upgrade the imaging on my Timelessā¦ Back to apple dongle then.
OK, well I donāt have EJ07m.
Fish memory? I donāt rememberā¦
Never change.
I heard boosting EQ a lot changes Timeless into MEST MKII. Easy. Iām going to try it this afternoon.
Thatās why I asked Godness and not your majesty I want different opinions on EJ07m. Iām pretty sure youāre giving me full impressions on A90
Good. Gonna spamm you more now (true fact)
You better buy a new one, since you sold yours 24h later. LOL.
U already have a W2ā¦ So I guess if you will gain from Amp will be 0.1% IMO
Thanks! Thatās what I like to hear!
(I know shit about sources, tbh. I can only tell what I like and what I donāt. I donāt like BTR5, I like W2. Donāt ask me why )
And that is trueā¦ U wonāt hear HUGE difference in IEMs compare to full size headphonesā¦ IMO
Thanks. Guess my A90 will come with Arya then
