Reply to comment by coptician in What does a high end DAC really offer? by hurtyewh
I run 2 ADI-2s.
One for my Martin Logan active electrostats and one for my main headphone set up.
The sound quality, features, tweaking and remote are absolutely fantastic and worth every penny.

The distortion is probably from overpowering the HD800 or the signal going to the ifI isn't strong enough. Check the input volume in Windows/Mac and set it to 100.
I have the Black Label, iCan Pro, Lyr 3, Beta22 and others and these all seem more than capable of powering the HD800 to a loud manner at low-mid volume.
