You're welcome, @heavenlybabyblue. Just remember to read the Best DACs With Amps for Shure SRH240A Headphones I mentioned earlier to get a better understanding of how these DAC amps perform with the SRH240A headphones.

Welcome to the club! The SRH240A are great headphones. For a high-end option, I'd recommend checking out the Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M. It's known for its excellent sound quality and has a dedicated headphone output.

Thanks for the suggestion @Themainfox14. I've been considering the ARC Mk2 as well. It seems to be quite popular in this price range and offers good performance with a compact design.

Hey, I'm also using SRH240A headphones and found that the Cambridge Audio DacMagic 200M really improved my listening experience. The Best DACs With Amps for Shure SRH240A Headphones has some great insights on how it performs with these headphones specifically. It's worth a look!

Thanks for all the input! So, between the DacMagic 200M and ARC Mk2, which one would be more suitable if I'm looking for a compact option?

If you're interested in a more portable solution, then the ARC Mk2 might be the way to go. It's smaller and lighter than the DacMagic 200M, making it easier to carry around.

That's true @crypticspider. The ARC Mk2 is indeed more compact, but if you don't mind carrying a slightly heavier device, the DacMagic 200M delivers top-notch performance. It all depends on your personal preference and priorities.

Thanks again for your help! I'll do some more research and see which one suits my needs best. I appreciate everyone's input!
