My first pure standalone SDAC and I am impressed. Makes my laptop sound much better, cleaner, more open, etc. and even seems crisper when going A/B with my iPhone XS, which is pretty rare in my experience. Have used with Sennheiser HD598 and Beyerdynamic T5p plugged directly in. I tried this with the O2 amp, but I really don't like the sound profile of the O2 (with or without this SDAC). With a different amp, I'm sure it would be great. Would recommend this SDAC.

JoeW901Wait... You mean you plugged your headphones directly into this and they sounded good?

phoenixsongI do, they sounded great. But the headphones are both pretty low impedence - 598's are 50 Ohm and T5p's are 32.

JoeW901Cool, I didn't know we could drive headphones directly from dacs. How do you adjust the output level though?

phoenixsongYou can just adjust the volume on your source - laptop or whatever. It's not going to be as loud as with a dedicated amplifier, obviously, but plenty of volume for me with the low impedance headphones.
