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.- MacAlwin

Portable tube amp from china?
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).- MacAlwin

Portable tube amp from china?
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...- MacAlwin

I was also surprised. No noise floor hissing despite the super low impedance of only 9 ohm (? as far as I know) on the 846's. But maybe I just played the music too loud...- MacAlwin
