What is the next noticable/satisfactory upgrade from the uDAC?   Must be compatible with a Macbook.   My amp is Little Dot I+ my headphones are the Grado RS-1. At some point I may add Sennheiser 600 or 650s.     Edit: I've been looking at the Dac-EXTASY (only $110 now... hmm)...

Current setup: Little Dot Dac I > Little Dot MK III > HD 650. I expect to get a HD 800 in the coming years. But before I get there I would like to replace my LD MK III with the LD MK VII+ (Little Dot Amplifiers • View topic - Little Dot MK VII+ Balanced Headphone Amplifier). Now will...

Hi, Does anyone have any experience or recommend any of the ebay chinese tube amps? Thanks.

I recently bought an Alessandro MS2i with a Little Dot I+ (with Mullard M8161 / OPA2107) and I'm wondering if a classical Headphone Amps (instead of a tube amp) could be better ? The little dot is my first headphone amp, so I cannot compare with any other headphone amps, but I don't know...

im seriously considering the AKG K701's as my next pair of cans to purchase and was wondering which amp would be a better buy, the little dot mk III or the total bithead, ive heard tube amps are great with the 701's, but im not exactly sure what a tube amp is, im a huge nooob when it comes to...

Hi there,   It's birthday time soon, and I'm finally going to step up into some real cans.  Right now my set-up is Apple Airport Express>Little Dot MKIII>Grado SR-60 headphones.  Yes, I know I need a DAC, and that will happen soon enough.  I have done the tape mod to the SR-60's.  The Little...

Hello,   I have been searching the forums for advice on a portable amp to match up with my iPod touch.  There are several threads devoted to "amps under $200.00" but most are couple of years old now and I want to know what the most up to date reviews are.   I was considering getting a...

I just picked up a set of Beyer dt48 that are 25ohms. I think the LD mkV was designed for higher impedance headphones. I have a 300ohm impedance adapter a friend made for me. The dt48 definitely has better bass when I use the adapter as opposed to just plugging into the mkV. Does anyone know...

I found a guy on craigslist selling a Little Dot amp for $130. I called him asking what model it was, since it wasn't in the listing, and he said there were no markings besides "Little Dot" on the back plate, and that it was completely anodized gold. I found a page somewhere else on the internet...

Hi all, this is my first post but I've been lurking for a while. I've decided to buy either the Little Dot MkIII or the II++ after reading all the fantastic and glowing reviews (pun intended). Now the 2-cent question is... where can I find one to buy?

Okay, another K701 amping thread. I went through the search function but didn't really get the information I needed. Anyway, I'm looking to spend around $200 and want an amp that matches well with my K701.   I'm basically looking for something that plays to one of the K701's main strengths...

Anyone have experience with their Little dot MKIII not powering off with the power switch. It looks like my switch is stuck in a constant on state right now. I cant get the power to turn off unless I unplug the cord.

Which would be the better one to go with, the Digizoid or the Little Dot Micro+? I've read a bit on both of them and I think that they could both do what I need, but would like to get the better of the two. Advice please?

  I got my first set of real headphones last year, the Grado SR 325i, and am really happy with them. I know they're accused of being slightly 'harsh' in the heigh notes but I feel this has gotten better after using them for a while and, not the least, with using them with a good source. I'm...

hi everyone, i am using little dot mki+ with grado rs1. But i can hear static noise an right channel. Nothing on left side. also i noticed that the noise is starting after 5 minutes when i turned on the amp. I mean everything is normal at first. What do you suggest me to do? Is there any...

Looks like a nice little amp. Probably the smallest desktop amp I've ever seen Would like to have one to use with my laptop through usb port.

Penchum has been a long supporter of Little-Tube's products. One thing I have to give him is his long winded yet very satisfying review. Now it is my turn to give something back to this excellent Head-Fi Poster. Welcome to the world of the Chinese Audiophile. The Little Dot MKI+ is the...

tried to put together some 6AS7G equivalents with notes (from my personal experience). of course, the usual brand/re-label disclaimers apply. So no need which one is better. The goal here is just to list the main equivalents that may work in your amp's circuit. Did I miss any equivalents...

Hello Head fiers!    I am looking to swap out the tubes in my hlly mk III. the pre amp is GE 5654 and the power tube is 6n11 or 6h30. Any suggestions that will improve performance? Any other mods users can suggest?        Thanks again

I'm looking for a cheapish tube or hybrid amp that can drive both low and high impedance 'phones properly. I want something versatile like that, since I'm currently use my SE530s for everything, and am shopping around for a pair of full size 'phones at the moment so I don't  know what impedance...

Hey I'm thinking of getting a pair of HD650's as I'm really not all that happy with my ATH-AD700's, but I was wondering whether or not I need to invest in an amp to get the most out of them when using them on my computer.   My current setup is just my ATH-AD700's connected directly into my...
