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!

what kind of sound sig you like ?

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.

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..

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.

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.

Ahh just notice got post about this dacport at first page. Gonna research first! tongue.gif

im a lil bit confused..
what does it mean by integrated Class A amp?
meaning DACport is DAC + AMP?
it doesn't need to pair with other amp?
