    I own this and I use it with my QDC Anole VX IEM and they sound *phenomenal*. The Bluetooth sounds equally as good as wired, so I basically never use it wired. I also EQ the IEMs in Android using the Wavelet app. When they are EQ'd, the Anole VX have borderline flawless sound quality on the Diablo 2. I also highly recommend trying the Meze 109 Pro with this amp, because in terms of "bang for buck" it's currently impossible to beat those headphones and they are remarkably easy to drive.

    Only watching for entertainment purposes, cuz spending (half of mine) PC worth of money on a DAC is next level crazy 😂 maybe you have a suggestion for a reasonably priced bang for buck variant? I have EPOS H6Pro open back. Also, other question. Would you rather buy a DAC with integrated surround option like EPOS GSX 1000 7.1 or using a DAC without surround sound and combining it with Dolby Atmos.

    @@TotallydubbedHD 7800x3d, 7900xt, MSI b650 tomahawk (ALC 4080 audio codec that's supposed to be somewhat decent for the motherboard codec). P.S. I've commented on your other video regarding the monitors. Still can't decide between AOC ag274qs (520€) and Asus xg27aqmr (670€) as I would (in theory) really appreciate the ELMB Sync feature. But in practice I believe the AOC motion clarity should be more than enough...
