There is a review here: http://www.headfonia.com/review-rha-dacamp-l1-energy/3/

I was triggered by this comment from the review:
'.... Switching to full sized headphones. The new AudioQuest NightOwl is one of the headphones that impressed me most over the last few weeks. It sounds clear, precise and musical. It’s not as airy as the Hawk but I personally would say that’s a good thing. The L1 gives it all the power it needs and makes it sound incredibly good and detailed. This headphone surely will win a lot of the prizes this year and the DacAmp L1 is a great companion with it. Fully recommended... '

But why a mini-XLR connector? Seems rather exotic to me. Wouldn't the new 4.4 mm standard from sony be a better option?

Thanks for your question!
 
We felt the Mini-XLR offered the best solution to us in terms of the balanced output. We have been developing the Dacamp since before the 4.4mm became a standardized option as well.

Thnx for your reply!
I have been looking around on the net for the 4.4 mm option. And it seems to be another case of 'competing standards'. (I hope the picture works). It seems people here (in Europe/mainland )aren't going to bother with dedicated music players. They are hardly available, the Sony's the least, and forget about the 4.4 plug.

Portable amps + a smartphone are the way to go, at least if you want to have some turnover in a niche market. I think having a balanced output is a clever way for the RHA Dacamp to differentiate from the rest. It's imo a strong selling point. (apart from other aspects of the Dacamp. Enticing device
It's a different discussion, but the Achilles heel in general for everything involving headphones, seems to be the availabillity of cables and choice of plugs. Here the industry should really work out something. (Some have, by abandoning the cable alltogether)

I dont want to stray to far from the topic of this thread but I wouldn't be surprised to see 4.4mm become the norm eventually, I couldnt agree more with the image as of the current situation however. We will just need to wait and see I suppose!

If I can't tame the charging "coil whine" on my Mojo, this amp is definitely on my short list of amps to replace the Mojo! Does anyone know if it can push my LCD-2F like the Mojo does (with authority)? I'm looking to use headphones in a transportable setup more than IEMs (I don't like sticking them in my ears).

You guys know if the L1 supports a Ipod classic 160GB (using the 30 pin to USB connector), especially the charging function?
 
I checked in the RHA homepage, but the classic is not in the list of IOS supported products

Yes it does play via USB and charge, 160GB iPod Classic (last production, MC293LL). It won't work if you have earlier iPod Classic.
