Yup I expected it to be hard. LOL. No harm done trying right. Tested FiiO E7, didnt really like it. Ibasso got? Will search for it.

Am checking on FiiO D3 aswell. Maybe bro E1-AKG can enlighten us.
I might also try the DIY USBDac. Looks cute.

Thanks for supporting this thread guys. biggrin.gif

Source : Alienware M14x, Sansa Clip+
Equipment : ATH-ES7
Requirement : Portable
Budget : 500-1000


Though the budget is upto RM1000, half of it might be used for an amp. Hence the "500 to 1000" statement.

Thanks in advance!

u might need to take a look at Ibasso D6 or D12 which is around 1k but then i strongly recommend u to try Dacport which is very good dac with class A amp...

However, Dacport's price is 1.5k..

Hmmm... louder? Or issit bolder? Not sure if they have these terms. My ES7 is already clear which I love. Whichever that can boost my built-in SC on the lappy.

Bro, if I go for this Dacport, issit enough for my lappy? I can fork out that extra 500 if I dont need to add any amp to it.

yes.. as mentioned by Enigmatic and Alpoyoz... its actually quite powerful to drive any headphones.. i was quite surprised by the capability it can produced.. smile.gif

Haha damn! Poisoned already.

Can recommend other brands and models at the price range lower than Dacport? Maybe not as good as Dacport but close lah.

I will go and audition these DACs before buying.

Ibasso D6 or D12... but trust me.. once u tried dacport... u will know the difference already..

how does it sound?
and the price?

its 1.55k

how does it sound? its very subjective but i can tell you that the sound produce by dacport is very natural..

i have tried it pairing with my own DT880 together with Edge Amp..
