Set your total budget for a complete system — headphones, amplifier and DAC. Each lane shows the best combination that genuinely fits that money, with every component priced and totalled, so nothing here quietly costs half as much again as the number you set.
Prices are approximate new-in-2026 figures in USD and move around. Buying used typically shifts you a full tier upward for the same outlay, which is often the single best value decision in this hobby.
