TOPPING NX1 Portable Headphone Amplifier Impressions Thread

[Mr Trev]

So I guess all the sellers listing an OPA1611 in their descriptions are wrong? (not questioning your findings, just wondering why the misinformation in the descrips. Ebay, Amazon are all the same)
 
Should I still assume this would be a decent upgrade from an e6?

yeah it really is. I own both the E6 and the NX1.

This was confirmed ages ago. Topping told me that it's not the OPA1611.

I'm going to try to find an EMI shielding sheet and wrap it around the NX1. Should take care of the EMI issues.

where can i find this?

Is this one of the most bang for your buck portables right now? Seems like a great buy.

Seems like a sweet amp....You guys should stock 'em - amazon.ca is a total rip-off

Yes ..this amp is awesome for the price ..cant get any better ...btw ...respect to your work on themes for Fiio X3 ..thanks

 

[Mr Trev]

Tis pretty tempting, just so many choices right now (e11k, e12iem(soonly, i hope)). I just wish it could be had from an actual retailer (lmue, penon, etc) - it would also gimme an excuse to grab another pair of phones, like say those havis.
Glad you're enjoying the theme, if only Fiio would release a new fw version

Also heard great things about this little cheap amp! So great that so many amazing products can be had, from China for almost nothing these days...

I would like to say while SAP-5 is a very nice sounding amp (using it right now) it's purpose is for giving IEM a nice boost in power, while it will drive my Shure headphones (440,840,940) I don't like it's chances on succeeding incredibly well with high impedance gear, especially without a gain switch. Therefore those looking at driving for example 250ohm Beyers your much better off with NX1.

tl;dr: NX1 has more power (seemingly)

Today my Fiio L11 arrive. I find that NX1 really shines when recieve Line level output. Sounds are more airy, focused and refined. No more distortion and Hiss with iPod HP out. Especially with my B3 these guy perform evergy genre of music really AMAZING!!
