I received a Bravo Audio V2 today.  Loved it, for about an hour.  Then it made a loud pop through my headphones, and the red light went off.  Jiggling the power cord made the light go back on/off for a bit.  However, now the red light remains off.  Some sound comes out of the V2, however it's...

Hi everybody.... i am planing on buying a tiny vacuum tube amplifier just to see how they sounds like. I can't afford much so i found these two. One is called Bravo V2 and i guess it's pretty famous all around for being cheap etc.... the other is called Little bear.. i found both of them on e...

I know there are quite a few threads about these types of amps, but none of them answer the question...are they worth it? I am using a laptop and have to use a portable amp, and I am a basshead which means a portable tube amp would suit me very well, hence my interest. I am wanting to replace my...

There are a lot of people (myself included) that came to this site looking for information on how to get into the audio game. We see these threads all the time. People want to know what the best bang for the buck is... usually under $100. Generally they get pointed to the M50 or whatever...

I have, at long last, decided to get myself a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990s! They seem like top of the line build and quality, but rather hard to drive. For that, I purchased the Bravo V2 $70 tube amp. That little bad boy has some solid reviews and enough juice to power the 990s. I may end up...

I was just wondering. Pairing with the Modi dac and HD600 headphones is it necessary to get the Magni as well? Or should one just get the Bravo v2 amp? As to someone trying to save money.

Hi there, everyone.   Im thinking of buy a Bravo Audio V2, for those that dont know, its a tube's amp that delivers the "tube sound" that audiophiles like it.   I dont know if it will be a good match with my HD558.   People say that the Tube used in the amp provides a more bright sound and...

Hey everybody, Just a few days ago I ordered for myself the UE 6000 headphones and they are on there way to me. Now I'm looking for a tube amp which will be connected to my headphones, and sometimes my speakers. Is there a beast like that? I'll connect it to my computer and my record player...

I hope someone can help me.  I bought a Bravo V2 amp, and while the stock tube is ok for listening to the TV with a wireless transmitter/receiver, it doesn't cut it when listening to music.  I'm using a new set of AKG K240s.  I would like something with better and clearer bass as the stock tube...

As a gamer, I am mostly interested in positional sound/audio features for headphones. I have experienced Dolby Headphone, CMSS-3D, and SBX Pro/Surround. Thus far, I find SBX Pro/Surround to have the best positional sound, but mostly because of a single advantage SBX Pro/Surround has over Dolby...

Not a deep review, but enough to pique my interest. http://www.cnet.com/news/a-tiny-super-affordable-but-powerful-tube-headphone-amplifier/ Any thoughts other than it looks pretty cool? :)

Hi there,   So I ordered a Bravo V2 the couple of days ago straight from the website. The PayPal order went through, and I got a confirmation from PayPal but not the website.    I also think that they are sending me the item from outside of the US... The recipient of the payment (according...

Hey,im buying new headphones for 200euros or less. Im listeninig to hard rock and heavy metal. I want open and neutral headphones,i was thinking about Beyerdinamic DT 990 Pro. My amp is Bravo V2 Thanks!

Hey,   I recently purchased a AKG Q701 and I am planning on running it out of a 2011 13" macbook pro while listening to a lot of folk and maybe indie music. I was wondering what should i get in terms of an amp. Would i also need a dac? I run ALAC files and some 320 mbps files too.   I was...

Bravo V2 Review   So this is my first foray into the "hi fi" world. I buddy let me listen to his HD650's on his Little Dot MKIII and I was hooked enough to get into the action. So I did some looking on this site and others as well as the r/headphones.    I purchased a set of Monoprice 8323...

I've read somewhere that powering the amp down while the headphone are pluged in could potencially harm the headphones ?   Is that true ? Is there a way to bypass that problem ?   Thanks a lot ! Eric   I'm using AKG K702 if that makes a difference.

Got these amps from smxsky - Use them as pre amps to 2 power amps . Source being a decoder that decodes stereo from a DVD to 5.1 . I may require a third power amp for the Centre and subwoofer signals. cheers

Best $50.00 I ever spent. It makes such difference. I will never listen to my headphones without it again. I did not expect such clarity and such warmth. Great Job Bravo Audio.

I just picked up a Bravo V2 amp and I see there are a lot of people who have modified theirs.  Is there a good source out their for mods.  I am a noob/amateur but love stuff like this.  If anyone can point me to a source I would really appreciate it.  The source for the amp wil be a Musiland...

I'm just really starting to get into headphones and portable headphone amps (started off my audiophilic neurosis with my original Klipsch ProMedia v.400 THX 4.1 speakers for an original vintage 1997 AlienWare gaming rig I won at a QuakeII LAN and move to stereo speakers then car so I'm diving...

I have Sennheiser PC350's. Yes yes, you can bash me to hell and back again for having them, but first know I got them at a massive steal of 95$ a few years ago, and they compare, driver wise, according to a Sennheiser rep to HD595's, but with most users reporting they end up around HD555...

Hi all,   Here's the nuts and bolts of it.   Headphones: Sennheiser HD650 new.   Source: Toshiba Laptop   Budget: AUD $600.00   First post to this forum. I may have gotten a little carried away and I now have a pair of Sennheiser HD650s on the way. I have made this purchase...

 So I just bought the DT880's with 250ohm impedance and haven't gotten an amp or dac yet. I heard that there is a possibility of damaging them from under driving them. I'm using them on my computer right now and I can get them louder than I even need. Is there more to driving headphones than...

Hey guys   Would like to tell you the weird problems my bravo amp has developed. It has left off for many months until I got some new headphones. I plugged it back in and all seemed normal. Until I listened to some music it sounded like crap, the sound card in my PC sounded much better then...
