HD490 Pro DAC - Black Pearl or DS2

Hi, I just bought the HD 490 Pro and I'm wondering what to go for with the dac/amp.

I've heard that they are easy to drive (and maybe that no dac/amp is required) so I guess a portable budget version is completely fine.

I have narrowed it down to the Black Pearl and DS2 to bypass my motherboard's audio codec (MSI B650 Tomhawk).

I'm looking for something very simple (plug & play mostly) as I don't plan on using EQ or any other feature.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Upgrade from Bose Companion 2 to Edifier m60 - Will I notice a difference?

Hi, I'm thinking of buying the Edifier m60 to replace my Bose Companion 2 serie III.

However, I'm wondering if it's worth it. Do you think that I will be able to feel the difference in sound? Obviously the Edifiers are much newer but the size is more or less the same.

Thanks!

Hello, I'm very close to order a new chair and thinking strongly about the Amia.

One of the few things that I'm afraid of with the chair would be the maximum recline angle. It appears to be very limited compared to my existing Please v2. I often like to recline when watching videos so I wonder how it really feels in actual use.

Does anyone that switched from a chair with a large recline angle to the Amia, how does that feel? Is it that limited and was it a problem for you?

I'm thinking going Leap V2 if Amia is too limited.

Hi, I tried the Fern without additional lumbar support for 2 weeks before sending it back.

The lumbar was soft and not really aggressive.

Is the Amia lumbar support the same kind? I've heard it was very soft and maybe unsupportive for some, but I had heard the same about the one on the Fern and it was fine for me.

Is it completely different?
