I live in Bakersfield, ca it's up over the mountains north of La.

dac: Matrix M Stage amp: Matrix M Stage Matrix M Stage Headphone Amplifier Amp Class A New Ver SHIP from United States | eBay I have been reading all the reviews on these two units over the last few days , and I like what I have read about them. Does anyone have both products ? What is your opinion on them ? The reviews I have seen have been of the units separately, so far I have not found a review of both used as a team. If you own these to pieces of equipment I would really like to hear from you. I could pull the trigger on either of them and would need to save up for about 6mo to get the 2nd piece of equipment, so it's really important that I choose something that will last me for years. This is for me a one chance to get it right kinda deal. Again thank you for your opinions and advice.

Actual speakers is not possible, my living arrangements are such that actual speakers would disturb the whole house.(renting a room with other folks) i will look at your suggested products ty.

I am a lowest of the low income person(sux for me but it is what it is) so there is no chance of me ever reaching audio perfection. I would appreciate some suggestions that are best bang for the buck. My ears are unfortunately rather sensitive and even from good (personal rips) flac file sources I can hear some digital distortion from time to time, so the ac 97xx sound chip on my motherboard is not cutting it for me. My computer has an spdif out that I would like to hook up to a dac/amp combo. I don''t need lot's of various inputs/outputs just optical in and a headphone jack. I would like to be able to swap out op-amp chips and I want the dac to support 24bit/192khz. I currently have saved up $300.00 and can put away about $50.00 a month. i am patient and I am trying to research all my options before busting my piggy bank on this. I would deeply appreciate your advice and suggestions for a set of headphones, dac and amp combo or separates. Thank you.
