Hello - I'm new to the Audiophile world and decided to jump straight into the DIY land for the sake of starting project 
My Setup:
- Sennheisers HD 650 headphones
- Bottlehead Crack Amp
- FLAC audio
- VOX media player on my Macbook Pro
From my research, I found pupDac as an entry level DIY DAC for starters and ANK Audio Kits for the people with high budgets. I want to mention that the Bottlehead Crack is what got me into DIY because of how well documented each step was along with one stop to order all the parts. You can say I'm looking for a kit like that. Well documented and mid range budget (~$500 USD), and preferably (but optional) all the parts necessary to build the USB DAC. Basically in between pupDac and ANK.
Thank you!
