Same dilemma... I'm personally leaning towards Atom since they will release dac as well. I need both and i like to have combo from same brand and model. Also despite being plastic i like the aesthetic of Atom more.
However i'm external dac/amp newbie. How can i use my self powered bookshelf speakers(edifier r1280t) and headphones(dt 1990) at the same time ? Can i connect them both and switch between them ?
I have a JDS Atom with my D90. I also have headphones and powered desktop speakers. I use the OL Switcher from JDS labs. It's a really nice 2 input, 2 output passive preamp. Works great.
My chain looks like this: Mac-> D90 -> OL Switcher -> Atom -> headphones
............. ................................................................. | -> Bose powered speakers
BTW: I love my Atom amp. https://jdslabs.com/product/ol-switcher/
