RSA Tomahawks sell for approx. $180-$200 on the For Sale forums.

I had both the D10 and D4 with the IE8. In fact, of all the amps I tried with the IE8 the OP amp modded D10 was probably the best. I couldn't hear much of a difference if any with the D4. I however, must say that I am still not convinced that these portable amps make that much of a difference as I had expected. I have since then sold both.

Ok so you have got my interest.

 

Toucan and what are the other two items? iBasso D10?

 

Also I thought the Toucan was for balanced headphones only not SE?

 

More info would be nice.. good or bad

The Toucan has both Single ended and Balanced inputs and ouputs.

 

I only use my SE, amps my laptop music very nicely ,its a pretty powerful little amp.

iBasso PB1 Toucan's songs and musical instruments layered sense of space is very good. Than D10, D4 even more than P3 +.
