HAD AN A15 AND AN X3, AND NOW I'M WAITIN' FOR AN X3 2ND GEN.   THEY MIGHT BE QUITE AFFORDABLE DAPs, BUT IF I HAD THE MONEY, I WOULD GO 4 A GOOD A&K PLAYER OR AT LEAST A PONO.   HAVE A HAPPY SPRING!!!

if i connect ma tv to speakers via an analog cable , can you suggest me an amp no more than $80?   (i want the amp to have a bigger connecting plug than 3.5" because the headphone out has one like this!)   (i also have a fiio a3 but i connect it to my sony nwz-a10 dap).   thx!!!

hi,   i connect ma pc through an hdmi to ma tv and then from tv to a pair of speakers via optical cable.   since i want more volume from ma HPs when i connect'em to my speakers who have a bigger hole than a 3.5" jack, can you suggest me an amp under $100 not needing an extra adapter when it...

I'M USING FIIO A3 WITH A15 AND IT IS LOUD ON MY ETYS HF-5 IEMS BUT NOT SO LOUD ON MU NEWLY PURCHASED AKG K550 HEADPHONES!!!

I surely hope for Sony. Concerning Fiio I squeezed it (lol) and fixed it!!! (had a prob with headphones out hole after replacing its faulty battery with a new one). Now I use it as a dac/amp 4 ma pc!!!

I use Fiio's A3 (fairly small, much power, I have no problem overall). Search for it!!!   (I've searched a lot for a smaller and cheaper amp but they don't "amplificate" much and so they are pretty useless for A10 series!!!).

i believe a25 vs a25hn main difference is the headphone inclusion in a25hn.

as i had a fiio x3 (1st gen) and now i have a sony a15 i can't find differences in their sound signature except than fiio has a better amp(lifier) so it's more loud if you want it to but you can find a sony a10 or 20 series as i see without the volume "cap". (as i read also my sony (a15) is much...

1st day with my previously used A15!!!   It's not better than my broken X3 I liked, but seems a good try from Sony!!!   See ya!!!

after 2 years ma X3 almost stopped functioning (naff said!!!)

Great post for a great gadget!!!

UPDATE:   I've tested HF5s and found them very good but not as good as DN-1000 (even though they "colorize" sound), so I keep DUNUS and FIIO, returning my Etymotic's.   Thanks.

Hi all!!!   I have the Fiio X3 (1st gen.) with DUNU's DN-1000 and I'm waiting for Etymotic HF5 IEM's to come soon.   Till then, I wonder if I made a mistake to buy these instead of ER-4(?) as I wanted an uncoloured sound, because DUNU's sounded too V-shaped for my taste after many...
