Schiit HEL 2 Amp/DAC Review - Playing with the Big Boys!

The Schiit HEL 2, at $200, is an incredible headphone Amp/DAC combo. Whether you have a $100 gaming headset or a custom $3000 headphone + Mic build, the HEL 2 is a versatile powerhouse that works with PC, PlayStation 5, and the Nintendo Switch. If you are looking for the ultimate gaming headphone amp that works with USB and Optical, look no further. Crystal clear sound with quality components in a compact chassis make this an easy consideration at this price point.
