Xduoo Amplifiers
I'm afraid the general problem is that xDuoo engineers don't want to strain with inexpensive models. They could provide a delay when turned on, add the relay, but no... Is it so difficult for xDuoo engineers? For example, recently, I measured the temperature of my MT-601 (attached the results...- marbert

Xduoo Amplifiers
Hello Wiljen, I saw a photo of MT-601 circuit board in your review on audiofool.reviews, it is very similar to the fissure next with a tube connector (see the attached photo). It arose when you tried to replace the tube?- marbert

Xduoo Amplifiers
Oh, sorry, one more question. Does your MT-601 have a strong click when you turn on? And what is the constant voltage at the headphones jack output? If you have measured. And is there any protection in MT-601?- marbert

Xduoo Amplifiers
Thanks for the detailed answer. And what could you say about the sound of MT-601? Everywhere reviews only about MT-602 and extremely few reviews about 601 model. I am interested in can I hear "soft warm tube sound" in the MT-601? Many write that 602 model in this sense differs little from the...- marbert

Reply to review by 'marbert' on item 'XuanZu XZ-U303 / Nobsound NS-02E Headphone Amplifier'
Join the question, also I would like to know how to get rid of distortion using low impedance headphones. I have a Grado SR80 (32 ohm). And why does the author write everywhere that he bought XuanZu XZ-U303 and that this is an analogue of Nobsound NS-02E, at the same time everywhere on the all...- marbert

Revival of aiwa, New DAP announced.
Unfortunately, AIWA did not release this player, but it appeared under other names: 'AGPTEK H3' and 'iRULU F20' That is, it is a product of some no name Chinese factory (perhaps 'Aigo', if 'Aigo' produces anything at all) for third-party brands. In any case, the player looks very...- marbert

TOPPING NX1 Portable Headphone Amplifier Impressions Thread
Try with another cable, I had extraneous sounds from the smartphone, if it was nearby. I replaced the Topping cable and the extraneous sounds went away. P.S. I bought Fiio L16, but you can try any other, the main thing is that it should be better than the Topping cable.- marbert

Obscure Chinese DAPs
For classical and jazz music - Nintaus X10 (second revision) is an excellent option. It's sound can be described as "soft", "analog" (tube). But it is slightly more expensive ($55-65).- marbert

Obscure Chinese DAPs
This is not a fake, the electronics segment of Philips has long been bought by the Chinese, Philips has long been not Dutch, alas. But this is the official Philips. Otherwise, the price would for fake be much lower ))- marbert

Obscure Chinese DAPs
They do not write X10_S, early they wrote simply "Upgrade Version", but now probably the first version is no more in selling, but it is better to ask the seller. I bought in Penon Audio, but there are offers cheaper, just type in search Nintaus X10 - https://goo.gl/1Rzn7y P.S. The complete kit...- marbert
