Hiya, I'm looking for recommendations of (both in one) dac/amps for the akg k702s-
I live in the UK and will be buying second hand
They would need to work via an iphone lightning->usb dongle as well as my laptop
I would like it to be portable i.e u don't have to plug it into a wall and ideally not a battery either
I would like to spend no more than £100
I have heard that despite the relatively low impedance of the k702 they really require a solid dac/amp to get the full potential out of them
My research trawling through all of the similar previous threads has lead me to the likes of the audioquest dragonfly red and the fiio e10k, however I'm fairly inexperienced and not feeling confident that these are the best for my specific situation!
Thanks for any advice :^)

Hi-
I have the opportunity to buy a pair of cheap (£270) 250ohm beyer dt1990 pros. One of the drivers has been replaced with one from a dt 1770 pro - will there be a noticeable difference? Is it worth it?
Thank you x

Hi,
I'm strongly considering buying a FiiO KA3 to pair with my AKG K702's, however I'm worried that the unbalanced 3.5mm 130mW@32R output will not be enough to power them -
Thanks for any thoughts/advice!
