Great thread! Cant wait to see the Furutech...
Thanks for creating this review thread. I'm looking forward to your review on the O2, as I'm trying to decide between a JDS Labs O2 or possibly the 2Stepdance.
Great thread! Cant wait to see the Furutech...
Updated the information in the first post, including adding my rating scale and the iQube V2 review.
I should be getting an O2 soon, but not JDS Labs.
I am currently working on the uHA-120 and Cruise reviews, so it is coming soon...
Joe, given that I now have the EPH-02 and have owned the uHA-120 for almost 12 months, I will be very interested in your impressions of these amps. My Aussie plugpack for the EPH-02 should be here by Friday and I plan to spend a large chunk of the weekend listening to the O2 with the adapter connected. Push on - you've assembled an interesting selection of portable amps and it should make for interesting reading.
I'm not sure how I managed to miss this, but.... great thread, Joe! This is the type of thread that takes sooooo much work, most of us are unable or unwilling to bother with it. But it is very helpful, so I'm glad you've done it. Thanks!
On a different note, that Furutech sure looks beautiful. It's like it is flaunting it's wedge shape and carbon fiber in front of the other "boring" rectangular amps.
@project86, I think you posted a short time back that you felt that things had dropped off a little in the portable amp market - they may have dropped off at RSA, Meier (semi-retired) and a couple of the other 'usual suspects', but somewhere between Fiio and iBasso there seems to be a new portable (mostly DAC/amps) every month. Mike at Headfonia finally got around to reviewing Triad's L3 and I suspect that many here are eagerly awaiting the arrival of ALO's balanced portable amp, the Rx MkIII. I also think there is a commercial future for the Objective2 if someone can put the internals into a smaller, lighter casing - my EHP-02 just isnt going to fit anyone's idea of 'portable', but then neither would the L3.
I dont know what TTVJ or Headamp are up to, but I suspect that we will see several new portable amps in the first quarter of 2012.
Hello,
I'm going on Ebay to see the Neco Soundlab v2 and i see a v3 )
Do you test the V3 ?
I see we can change the opamp (OPA134 by AD8610). Is it better ?
They said it's ok to drive can up to 200 ohm.
Is it ok to drive AKG 271 MK2 or DT880 PRO 250 ohm ?
Thanks.
