Hey folks, complete neophyte here looking to get cracking with my Senn HD 650s.  I’m wondering if anyone has any opinions on sending a Cambridge Audio dac, which I have read is good, but perhaps a bit dry or lacking character but sporting all the bit rate bells and whistles into a speedball crack to get best of both? Great tech from the dac and future proofing and warmed up with the crack character? Thanks!! Any thoughts?

I would imagine the Crack will be an improvement over the headphone output of your Cambridge DAC on high impedance headphones like the HD-650.  The Crack is indeed also rather future proof since it's already living in the past ;)

Thanks Paul for the Moebius time bending response. I’m not sure if I’m coming or going but it’s all good!!
