Guys, i'm planning to pair Grado SR60 (bought from ijan) with LDM+. So basically my setup would be FLAC>crappy mobo dac>LDM+>Grado. I'm not expecting anything to be wonder with this setup, at least it sounded better with this compare what i had previously which is nothing to begin with. I need some input from you guys to recommend basic DAC which is not overkill for SR60. Im kinda interested with Musiland SVDAC04. Given the budget constraint, I might ditch LDM+ and go straight with SCDAC04 since it have built in amp.
ya..source is important if U still using crappy mobo..I think u should start from source first..then only amp.Grado dun think is that hard to drive compare to other like Senn HD6XX series, AKG K701 and other. I am sure it will sing nicely without amp.

does it mean that no matter how good a headphone is, and if I'm using it with iPod, it won't be 'really' good? 
sure, please guide me to the world of darkness, I have too much of free time now. hehe
Source is important. So to improve yr listening plesure U should:sure, please guide me to the world of darkness, I have too much of free time now. hehe
1) Convert/download/obtain all yr music into lossless format such as Flac, Alac(apple lossless), APE or even 320kpbs mp3 (not recommended)
2) if use PC, use foobar2000 to play all yr music file. I know winamp is easy and widely use, but foobar2000 offer more in term of quality of music file it played. I said this because I been using winamp for since start use pc. Only recently change to foobar200 and I am impress by it. I regret all this year listen to crappy music play from winamp.
3) if budget allow and ipod is yr only DAP, maybe U can invest in modding yr ipod using Gmod. A forumer here is providing such a service at a reasonable price..
Anyway, Happy
