Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI) - Page 174

Rudi,  i have noticed that you are using the pha 1 more and more,  do you find it better than your other amps that you use for portable usage?  Or is there a special reason why you choose to use it? Thanks

Hi Retrias 

the reason I use Sony PHA 1 as follow :

I use Sony PHA 1 the last few days , because I want to proof by my self , that Sony PHA 1

is very good amp for this price $ 499 usd .

That's why Sony PHA 1 is not so easy to get in Japan . 

my friend help me to buy my Sony PHA 1 direct from Japan .

my Sony PHA 1 Has different SQ to Sony PHA 1 what I heard  during Indonesia high end 

audio Show .

Do you think that the japanesse PHA 1 have a different component than the one heard in the show and what is the Indonesian high end audio show? I am rather interested in the PHA 1 since it have more function than what  Fostex and CLAS is offering for their idevice dac

The first time I heard at this show was not so impressed , until my friend said that in Japan 

many people like this Sony PHA 1 .than I follow my friend to buy Sony PHA 1, I am quiet happy with my Sony PHA 1.

from the function as well , can use for I device , PC and portable amp too.

the same functional like my Ventura craft go dap x red with LME 49860  

I'm a bit late to the party and my setup is pretty simple.  No external DACs or dedicated portable headphone amps.   But it suits my ears just fine.

Looks pretty awesome to me.

And we all start out somewhere, I was the same lol ;)

I wish I had the extra cash to get the Momentum. It would be a more "grown and reserved" counterpart to my wild and flashy M100.

You were right bro, I just got the Walkman yesterday and took your advice. Not that the 440s need an amp with the E474, but I guess the overall sound seems smoother and a bit warmer. Oh and I maxed the Clear Bass (I just love it) with the E06 at No EQ. Pretty satisfied with the end results!
I guess I'll invest in a FiiO L5 LOD to try out the unamped goodness to the E06. Satisfied with my starter rig! :D
