I’m using the Signature combo and love it. On cables, not a fan of the Pentacon balanced cable, my custom Mogami phono cables are better. Secondly, a further upgrade can be had by changing to linear power supplies, I definitely wouldn’t power it from the USB. Finally, I switched the cables on my Sundaras to a fully balanced braided cable of OFC and not only did it sound better, it’s dramatically better to use than the springy, too short standard offering. Set up like this I think you’d have to go a long way to beat it.
Thanks for the great review! I'm trying to sort out my desktop DAC/AMP stack or non-stack options and the iFi components seems very well made and rated. Also in-play are offerings from Topping i.e. A30/D30 Pro - the DAC lacks bluetooth but support XLR interfaces....as well as the cool USA based Schitt stuff which I like but parts availability issues....After arguing with myself a bit more, probably hone in on iFi and since I do own a pair of Sundara's, a good fit. Thanks again.
I have the Zen Dac V2 and have no idea which direction to go for my DT 1990 Pros that are inbound with Velour Pads.. I will use them mostly for rap/rock & FPS gaming Was looking at a good stack but not sure which direction to take budget is roughly $600-$800
hi mike , do you notice a tick sound when you change settings from HFM to XSpace and when HFM+XSpace to off ? Same goes to powermatch from 18db to 0db ?
i have zen dac v2 and i really enjoy the Trubass button. do I losse this function if i got the singuter can amp ? or it can be applied aside with xspace
How does the Steelseries GameDac do with Music? Ik love music but my son loves playstation. The only reviews I can find are in combination with a Steelseries headphone, aimed at gaming (no bass). I’m curious how it does with a pair of active speakers.. wil it be worth it?
Nice review!😊 How is the sound signature of this stack compared to ifi zen DAC V2 + ifi Zen Can?
That’s why I love my Mike. Always a huge excellent surprise. 👏👏👏
Thank you my dear friend

I’m using this combo and love it!

I'll have to make these improvements and definitely get back to you on it.
recommendations for linear power supplies? I just ordered my v2 ifi sign stack but was planning on using usb until i realized it wouldnt be optimal

Hi Mike =)
Hello!
i use zen dac v2 with sundara. do i really need the zen can or signature to get the most of it? is there really any difference in using can/signature?
