I'm looking for a cheap portable amp that uses TOSLINK on consoles. I need a amp w/ rechargable battery for video game tournaments since I cannot hear the sound coming from the TV at times. Not sure where to look

Budget? let say around 500, anything cheaper would be nice too. I don't really want to buy a preamp and a amp, just adds to expensives. Is there any quailty difference if I hook up a Xbox/PS3 to the optical out rather then using the RCA. And also could I just use my Boa as a preamp and avoid...

I've been looking around the fourms trying to find a amp for my K701, pretty new to this tube business and so far people have said that the Little Dot I+, Shanling PH-100, the Zero/DAC amp, and other Little dots. The reason why I haven't randomly picked one out is because I want a amp that has...

Is there a amp that requires not alot of cables? I'm loving my D2 Boa's USB DAC and was wondering if there is something I could get for my K701s. If not, I have a Macbook with the optical/digital out and might be willing to get cables for that

Well, I didn't want to post a new thread about being a newbie looking for a amp. I have a pair of K701s and been amping them with a iBasso D2-Boa or with the Cowon D2 ampless (which is still amazing that little thing can drive those cans...) and I was wondering what amp I should look into that...

Is head-room the only place to get the Cardas?

Does the Mini to mini cable make a huge difference in sound? I'm currently using a cheap radioshack cable with my D2 Boa

Has anybody hooked up a AKG K701 up to this amp yet? If so, how do they sound?

Is the iBasso D2-Boa enough to power this beast or should I invest in a better amp before purchasing the k701?

Argh, I'm out of town during early mid august, wish I could go

I do recommend to stay away from the R4/M3 area, the mechanics of the cart will eventually fail due to the microsd reader spring, and something with the pins not reaching the cart. It's really annoying to find that perfect spot for my M3 to work Unless they fixed that problem, go ahead. The...

If you're willing to go through all that trouble to do so, go ahead. I never really tried putting songs on my DS cause it was too much of a hassle (turning on the DS and running Moonshell and then finding the song) and SD cards were quite pricy when I first got my flashcart. Look into the...

I was tempted to do that, but I stuck with my EX-90s... until I got my Triple fis. The A2DP was also tempting of the connectivity with car speakers and such.

So pretty much the iphone is the mp3/phone killer out there. Nothing else tops it?

I've been thinking of that, but doesn't a iphone pretty much lose alot of features if i unlock it (data connections and such)
