I've recently purchased an xDuoo TA-20 from a member of this awesome community and stupidly didn't realize it doesn't have a built in DAC (woopsie). I am currently using it with my Modi 3 and it's quite nice, but I'd love to source a DAC with balanced output to make full use of the TA-20. The Schiit Modius looks like a decently affordable option, but it doesn't look like A2A stock this unit and I haven't seen any other retailers here in Aus that do. Are there any recommendations for DACs around that price range, that are more easily obtainable in Aus? Thanks all.

Thanks! I got lucky and found the red th900mk2s for a decent price used and bit the bullet. They have the Lawton damper mods which tame the supposedly hot high end. Will be interesting to see how they compare to my other two biodynamic cans. The Autuer's look awesome. I initially was thinking of something like the LCD-X or HD800S, but there seem to be plenty of others out there I should explore.

Hey mate I will buy these. Will PM.

I've been considering cutting down on my collection of midrange cans and am eagerly awaiting the conclusion of the Melbourne lockdown to go and demo some higher end cans. I currently own: - HifiMan Sundara - Sennheiser 6XX - Emu Teak - Fostex TH-X00 Mahogany These are the headphones I swap between for dedicated music listening. I have others that fit specific roles (PortaPro for exercise, XM3 for travel etc.) which I definitely want to keep. I actually quite like each of the above 4 cans, but I'd be interested to see if any higher end options can replace 2 or more of the above. From my research, the TH900mk2 looks like it could replace the Teak and TH-X00 however I've seen split opinions on whether it is worth its price tag. I would consider anything up to ~2k. What would you do if you had my collection? Thanks in advance

Late bump. Still looking for one of these.

For anyone who has this unit: 1. Supposedly it's possible to swap between a DAC only or DAC + Preamp mode for Line Out. The manual says you can swap between these by tapping the Line Out button on the remote, but mine seems to just stay in DAC + Preamp and I can't figure out what's wrong here. It's totally possible (probably likely) I'm an airhead and misread or misinterpreted something. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? 2. More of a curiosity but this device can output to both Line Out and Headphone outputs at the same time. What would be the use case for this? I'm still fairly new to the community so this one has got me curious.

Item: Schiit Loki Item Condition: New or Used Extra Info: Looking to buy a Schiit Loki hardware EQ. Shoot me some offers Please don't forget to report your post as FOUND when possible. (You can now delete this text).

Does anyone have any recommendations for 3rd party ear tips for the Airpod Pro's? My left ear does not seem to agree with any of the stock ones. I've had my eyes on the Dekoni Audio Bulletz on sale at Addicted to Audio, but being expensive have me worried that they might not fit properly either.

Great to hear What's your personal favourite set of cans?

I have Sundara's on the way and am quite looking forward to trying my first Planar Magnetic set of cans. I own DT 770 Pro's (80ohm) and 6xx and power them with the Schiit stack. Anybody want to ruin my hype? or maybe get me more hyped with their personal experiences with the Sundara?
