I had the UE 700. Switched to the PFE and never looked back. I have a set of Perfect Bass, but I installed gray filters, so they're the same as the Perfect Fit. Dual driver is really just overhyped.

Thanks for the input. Are there any good compact DACs that you recommend? Any opinions on Headstage's DAC cable?

I look forward to more articles on DACs from you.
