Hello! I am looking for a budget hifi setup under $1000, and have found that apparently Astell and Kern make quality beginner devices. I already have a great pair of headphones, the Seinhiser Momentum 2.
If anybody know what a good hifi setup is for under $1000 (mostly would gravitate for an MP3 with a DAC already built in,) I would love to hear.
Also, I'd enjoy knowing what the better mp3 player is, the Astell and Kern SR 25 or AK 100 II.


Thanks!
