Hi all,
I have been using my Sony NW-A45 quite a bit recently and today I copied over a DSD of Nirvana’s “Nevermind” and have to say that I am impressed with the quality when compared to sone of my lower bitrate files on the player. However I can’t help but feel that I can make it sound even better with spending some money on better headphones. At the moment I am using either a cheap £20 Sony in ear phones which are not certified Hi Res, or AirPod Pros and the less said about those the better.
Anyhow I am now looking to get some better phones on ear / over ear etc either Bluetooth with multipoint or with optional use of cable for increased quality, or ones that are wired with no Bluetooth capabilities but are certified Hi Res. if I become obsessed with Hi Res music, then I may well get another player with DAC in the future such as Fiio or Hiby, but for now I am happy with the Sony NW-A45.
I know that headphones don’t come cheap, but say a budget of £300 if there are any recommendations for that price.
Many thanks
