I've decided that I use my Sonos more than my cd player, so have moved my better graded cables over to the Sonos side of the system. I've also used headphones more lately, so have moved better interconnects over to the headphone amp.
What I've gone for is:
Dacmagic (being fed by Sonos) to Cyrus 6vs2 amp. QED Reference audio evolution (my best lead on paper).
Amp to project headbox2 headphone amp (via tape out - is this the best?) - Chord Cobra
Cyrus CD6s CD player to Amp - 13 year old Audioquest quartz3, copper interconnect.
With my aged Sennheiser HD570's (hopefully soon to be replaced with 650's) the change in leads has given me a real increase in clarity and openness.
Only problem is the CD player now sounds dull and not particularly open. Any suggestions. £100 budget.
