  Guys, if you are going with a third party amp.....get a decent mini I/C.
 
Makes so much difference!!!
 

 
Cool didn't know they did them right angle terminated,
 
The ones I have are straight jacked - where did you get yours? (PM me - cheers)

Had them for about 4 years....actually at the time I preferred straight.
 
I have a treasure trove of mini I/Cs. Nice sometimes to have a different signature..........but I hardly use portable amps any more.
 
 
The Cu amp and integration with the 380 is just a masterpiece of design and function for me!!!

LOL
 
Too kind Thomas, good to see you in here. Fun thread with nice and very decent people...
 
I should say, AK should hire me to market their product, you must be about the 15th person that has heard my player and could not resist, and went on to purchase...........
 
Having said that I do, do a great job in enticing people to how good it sounds with great skills........
 
Also helps that you like my in ears enough to buy all three pairs to go with the 380Cu.

A good way to ground the DAP to improve SQ:
 
The DAP in one hand and the other hand flat on the coper of the couch ...

   No more need for the Cu version of the AK380 !
