    Portable tube amp from china?

    Hi Onik, I am using the B4-X with IEM Shure 846 with very low impedance with no problems whatsoever. Sounds really good. Very light distortion, with a Tube touch. When I am back home in China I will try it with my HD800 with TRRS balanced cable. Will let you know.

    I have tried with my mobile phone... but that caused other interferences... I will try with my iPod tonight. I will organize some copper film and isolate the case from the inside and correct the grounding as someone did before (explained in this thread).

    Hi Onik, the balanced cables (Litz) for my 846's have arrived yesterday. The balanced output of the B4-X works well. Soundwise there is a little bit more distortion noticeable in the very low as well as in the very high frequencies. Don't know whether it is the cable or the amp. Ordered another...
