Most Versatile DAC Amps for HiFiMan Sundara?

I recently bought a pair of HiFiMan Sundara headphones, and I'm looking for the best DAC amp to pair with them. Can anyone recommend some versatile options that would work well with these headphones? I'd appreciate any suggestions!

Welcome to the forum, @peasrule! The Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M is a great option for your Sundara headphones. It's a high-end DAC amp that offers excellent audio quality and versatility.

Thanks for the suggestion, @SlayerSystems! The Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M sounds like an amazing option. I'm curious if anyone has tried the ARC Mk2 as well? Any thoughts on how it compares to the DacMagic 200M?

I've used both the DacMagic 200M and ARC Mk2, and I must say that they are quite different in terms of their features and sound signatures. The DacMagic 200M has a more versatile design with multiple inputs, while the ARC Mk2 is focused on audio quality with fewer input options. Ultimately, it depends on your preferences and budget.

That's really helpful information, @dixiebug7. So, would you say that if I'm looking for versatility in terms of connectivity and features, the DacMagic 200M might be a better choice?

I think so, @peasrule. The DacMagic 200M offers more flexibility in terms of inputs and outputs, making it a more versatile option overall. However, both DAC amps are excellent choices for the HiFiMan Sundara headphones.

@SlayerSystems I've been using the Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M for a while now, and I must say it's a fantastic DAC amp. It has really enhanced the sound quality of my music, especially when paired with the Sundara headphones. The TechReviewer article Best DACs With Amps for HiFiMan Sundara Headphones does an excellent job of covering its features and performance.

Great to hear that you're enjoying your DacMagic 200M, @jdthunderhawk. Your input strengthens the recommendation I've been given. By the way, do you have any experience with the ARC Mk2? How does it compare?

@peasrule, while I haven't personally used the ARC Mk2, I can tell you that many people consider it a solid mid-range DAC amp option for the Sundara headphones. It's less versatile than the DacMagic 200M but offers excellent audio quality.

That's good to know. I'll definitely take both options into consideration. Thanks everyone for your insights!
