Im really surprised they were able cram a Class A in. I was looking at the e18, and the e17, and this thing looks like it blows them away

Yes Aune knows what they are doing. I think they have set a new bar in what Class A means and can do as a portable amp. It's a super hard act to follow.

I can probably throw in a comparison here with other amps I have at my disposal (Alo Rx and the Shanling H3).

I only have iems with me, as I don't consider the Monster DNA pro as a true audiophile headpiece...lol (it's not that bad and I got as consolation "gift")

Update edit: yeah, these are powerful...

Now i need to save up for a bit for a high end planar. Now i have a amp on way that can handle them

Itll be a long while, any recommendations (1500 or under)

I really like HiFiMan planars. Maybe HE560 would fit your needs.

I was thinking them, the he-6, or the audeze lcd2

 

[nmatheis]

I'll hear some HE6 soon. Pretty sure B1 won't do those current hungry cans justice, though. Maybe something like iFi iDSD...

Wondering if Aune has any plan of releasing a new B1 with output impedance of 0.1ohm, that would be great for my Pandora

I also read your very detailed review and I must admit that I was really amazed and impressed, congratulations.
I would ask a favour and request for your advice for the selection of a portable amp.
My current combo is Sony NW ZX2 + OPPO PM2
After reading your review I do believe Aune B1 could be a good choice.
I mostly listen to Jazz, Vocal Jazz and mainly female singers.
My other alternative was Vorzuge Pure II+ (more than the double cost of B1).
I want to keep my fullbodied and musical sound of Sony ZX2 and do not want to loose fine mids of Oppo PM2 Phones and want an amp which can help with the rolled off highs of treble section.
Your kind comment and advice will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance and best regards

So far really liking this amp, it really makes the HE400 sing, even takes good control of the AD900x. now need to find my adaptor for my vintages.

Yes it's hard not to like it. I say it's 98% there.

Best Regards

HD 600 and ATH R70x this amp does the job. Great piece of gear.
