Is it possible to get an amplifier that supports four poles instead of the standard three, so that I can amplify an iphone headset? thanks, unnddd

I'm trying to compile a list of available portable DAC+amp devices to see which of them would best suit me and my needs. Right now my only real criteria is < $300; I know there are some well-loved DAC+amps out there but I just can't spend $400+ on an Emmeline kit. Here's what I have right now...

Right, so I'll make this as clear and concise as possible. I need to figure out what headphone amp/DAC I need for my setup. My budget for both the headphones and amp/DAC is about $250-300. I need my DAC/amp to be portable and preferably iPod line out compatible. I would like it to be battery...

They sound amazing with the little fiio e6 i picked up for 29 shipped on amazon, its quite imperssive how much of a different there is. very happy. very very very happy.

Hey guys,   New to the forum. Long time browser.   After much research, I picked up a set of Turbine Pro Gold's a few weeks ago.. I finally got the fitment issues fixed by picking u pa set of Comply tips, as none of the supplied tips stayed in my ears for extended periods without...

hello guys, i have a question to ask. can the pico slim work with earphone that has a mic?   thanks :)

Hi All  not sure if this is the right section to ask, but can the Fiio E7 be used to recording an analog line in signal to the computer via the DAC? I know the Nuforce Icon mobile can do this, but I was just wondering if the E7 can too. Basically I would like to be able to use the DAC in...

Could someone provide help choosing a new amp to match with a pair of Sennheisser ie8s. My source is a Cowon s9. I found the icon mobile to be of little benefit and would have preffered a little more treble from the setup. Bass was acceptable and in some cases better without the icon mobile.  ...

I'm new to this forum and new to the world of amps and headphones. I am planning on getting the Denon D2000's and heard that an amp is needed tomake it shine. I mostly listen to Hip hop, Rap, Reggae, and was looking for an amp to go with my iPod Classic 7th Gen. I was hoping that the amp would...

Hi,   Any suggestions on a portable amp with dual headphone output so two sets on headphone can be connected to iPad (for in flight...)?   Cheers

I need a portable amp for my 1964-Q custom iems and ATH-M50. I was looking at the highly praised RSA SR-71, but after I saw the price I decided I would rather not have an amp that costs more than either of my phones. Are there any amps under 200 that would offer a nice soundstage, and improve SQ...

Hi all, I am thinking of upgrading my icon mobile usb dac/amp to the Pico dac/amp as I feel my hd650s are pretty underpowered with it. I know the Pico may not be as good as a desktop amp but I would like to confirm whether the Pico will do a better job of driving these cans. Leon    

Hi All,        I'm afraid the 'Reviews' flagged by Head-Fi's search engine are just threads discussing the amp rather than actual impressions, and the Slim doesnt seem to get a lot of keystrokes. There are a couple of impressions over at Headfonia, but I think Skylab's reviews of Todd's...

I really think NuForce's Icon Mobile is a top bargain. I'd like to start a thread full of reviews for it. If you don't have one, it's $80 and a fantastic deal. I'll start with my review:   http://www.pnosker.com/reviews/audio/940-nuforce-icon-mobile-review Of course, if you have any...

Morning all,   Just purchased a Denon AH-D2000, primarily for use with my Macbook Pro and am currently using it directly with the headphone output on the notebook. While I am pleased with the Denon's performance in general, I am also understanding how it needs to be amped to get the best out...

I have had an ICON Mobile for quite a few months now and have spent well over 100+ hours of listening. From my PC as a DAC/AMP the sound quality is great, I certainly know there is a noticeable difference when using the amp verses without. However, When plugged into my Cowon S9 and using my...

I've searched around and found some threads about it but they haven't really had the answer I've been looking for.\ I was looking at the Nuforce Icon Mobile. It's only $80, but would my headphones be a lot better with that amp? I'm just looking for a portable amp that can be used as a USB...

So, I am looking to upgrade the quality of my portable audio situation. have both and iPod 6th 80 gb classic and an HTC Evo. My current plan of attack is to switch over to the Evo as my portable player, instead of having the iPod as a dedicated device (seemingly redundant). (Side note: I would...

Hi All, I go to the library almost everyday. Love listening to internet radio will working.  Currently:   Headphones: Sennheiser HD 201   DAC: Nuforce Icon uDAC-2   Sources: iphone 3G 16G MacBook Pro 15", Intel 2.2GHz   I have ordered a pair of MEE M6 in Black thinking...

I am honestly new to the audiophile world and I would like have a amp/dac that would perform to give the value for my dollar. I will be using this with my desktop computer but more often I will pair it with my iPod Touch as well as my Zune 30gb mp3 player.   Here is what I have come down to...

Ok, I think I've narrowed it down to a handful, but I need help in the final selection.   First, let me describe what I am looking for:   Play mostly music from my notebook, desktop and mp3 player to my headphones. Which is why I am looking mainly at DAC/amp combos.   Source: Sager...

I own the Sennheiser HD 650 headphones. I think a solid state amp best suits the 650s.   I am contemplating on buying the HDP as an AMP/DAC combo.   How's the HDP's output on the 650s? People who have listened to the burned in 650s over the Nuforce Icon HDP, please comment.   I...

Hello everyone, I have got a headphone-VIC FIRTH SIH1e I would buy a small headphone amplifier (I thought NuForce mobile icon) to play with my Ipod 30g .. as you see it? the small NuForce will be able to play decently on my ipod? or is it better to try a different amp? I spend about 100 euros...

Hello fellow members! I am FRESH to this whole headphone addiction and just found this looks-to-be excellent forum! Wish I found this before I bought equipment, but what's done is done and I wanted to see your opinion So I picked up Beyerdynamic dt770 pro 250ohm for $100, which sound really...
