    Is there such a thing as a dedicated headphone power amp?

    I know that this is a curious question, but one I just think I need to ask, as I see this might be a great way to integrate headphones into a current system. If you have a preamp with two preouts for example, one can go to the speaker amp and one to the headphone amp and you still have one...

    Fiio E12....What might be a good deal.....

    Just browsing B&H and saw this deal:   http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/968290-REG/fiio_e12_mont_blanc_pro.html   I am sorely tempted as I think this is a great price and the deal ends today.....   Hope this is not considered soliciting, as I have no affiliation with B&H

    The PA2v2 a simple review

    So.... This is my first amp. This is my only amp..... so my impressions are based on the fact of amped versus unamped of my source/sources.   I will start by saying that I don't consider myself an audiophile, but I love good sound. I will also say that my foray into portable and personal...
