Tks for the welcome.
I seem having difficulty locating a DAC for the config: Source (computer) - DAC - Amp - Headphone.
Much easier a DAC/Amp for the config: Source (computer) -DAC/Amp-Headphone. or DAP - Amp - Headphone.
Unsay brand naay separate DAC kanang medyo barato lang. Fiio does not have one.

--- JDSLabs ODAC is about $150 and has very good reviews, another option is the Schiit Bifrost although more expensive at about $350, this is prob one of the best sub-$500 standalone DACs out there

Asa diay dapit ang shop ni bro fetzhola.

wala pa sya shop bro but you can contact him through his mobile or you can check their FB page (Powerup Cebu).
he's a trusted seller and has received lots of good feedback. you can also audition some of the items that you're planning to purchase (if it's available) during meet-ups.

cheers!

@lespaulibanez Yes, basically easy to drive nah nga headphone..an Amp in your case wouldn't be a need. The X3 is good enough at MAX output voltage > 8 Vp-p and MAX output current > 250 mA. I'm NO Electrical Engr. but I based that info from what I have read before and here it is....this guide from James Chung, the CEO of FiiO, himself wrote.
Tips on how to choose a suitable amplifier for your beloved headphone

E12 is a dedicated Amp only. If computer source cheapest DAC from FiiO is the E10 (the amp in E10 somewhat on-par to FiiO's E11) has no batteries. E17 and E07K has batteries and can be used as portable amps...which you wont be needing I guess.

What would you be using this for? On the go? Home? Office? Do you prefer in ear monitors? For headphones there are on-ear, over-ear open and closed types to choose from.

Lots of players to choose from, iPod, Sansa Clip, Android phone etc.

I am a lawstudent on the go and would like a pair of IEMs because I commute through jeepney. However, I would venture into that months from now. I need the IEMs to suit my taste in acoustic, rock and classical music and would stay away from house or electro. What would be a decent pair for a Sansa clip?

Thanks.
I have decided to go portable first and if the hobby bites me then i'll upgrade later to a pc set-up for home use.

For IEMs, I can recommend the Rock-it R50, pm fetzhola if you want to audition one.
