One of the things I love about audiophile headphones – other than the jaw-dropping listening experience – is the relatively low price for entry. For around $200 you can get headphones that will radically alter your music listening experience. And recently, no one has backed this up better than Guangzhou, China-based brand Fiio.
I use a Chord Mojo 2 DAC/Amp and a Fosi DS2 DAC/Amp for all my headphone and IEM testing. This ensures sufficient power delivery for peak performance, while providing a distortion-free source for a clean, detailed signal. My music source is Spotify lossless.
