"I've been on a bit of an audio bender this year, checking out the best audiophile headphones, earphones and various DACs and dongles."
"And apart from the overwhelming joy that it's brought me - to listen to music I've been playing for 30 years, as if it was a totally new recording - the main thing that surprised me was the relatively low price of entry."
The focus was on audiophile headphones, earphones, DACs, and dongles. Listening to familiar music produced overwhelming joy, making tracks played for thirty years sound like entirely new recordings. The equipment delivered noticeable improvements in clarity, detail, and overall tonal balance. The relatively low price of entry surprised expectations, showing that meaningful upgrades need not be expensive. Portable DACs and mid-priced headphones offered significant value for personal listening. Affordability lowered the barrier to experimenting with high-fidelity audio and rediscovered emotional engagement with music.
