    Supermicro BG8DX MX and other portable O2's

    While O2 is technically a portable amp, the versions I've seen are rarely something you want to strap onto your player. I'm considering grabbing a SuperMicro BG8DX MX since it has MiniUSB charger and a charging light, and is acceptable size to stack with my Fiio X3:       The manufacturer...

    I was thinking that it might be worthwhile to start a thread listing the existing portable amps along with their price and website link. No reviews here, just a list. I have spent so much time trying to determine what options I have and would have loved to have a single source to get a list of...

    "Best" portable DAC-only for under USD 300?

    I am interested in recommendations to use with a latop, or my iPad and CCK, which I understands bypasses the iPad's internal DAC.  I am interested in a DAC only without an internal amp, so I can swap different amps in the future.  Today, I use the iBasso P4 Warbler or a FiiO E17, or add an...

    Portable tube headamp

    Just throwing this pic out there. This amp in silver sells for 80 dollars, for whatever reason, the same amp in black is generally won for roughly 25 dollars and 16 for shipping, so it seems like a low enough cost to give it a shot, for me anyway, it ended up costing me 41 dollars, shipping...
