I was quite surprised that I did not quite like it. Connected it to the DX160 and using my HD650. There is 2 possibilities here. Either I am more of a solid state person, or the tubes were not warmed up enough. I was in a hurry as my CFO (wife) was waiting in the car.
Did not wanna make an impulsive purchase.
That's what I read. Many people have positive experience with it. Need to find chance to go back and try again. How long do you normally have to warm it before the sound eases in?
Coincidentally, a friend let me try his iFi Nano Black Label and it was quite good. There is a good punch to it and clarity was awesome. Found a good deal on the second hand site and bought it.
Then I realised that the only input available is the recessed USB A port which is kinda crappy because that meant I can't charge my DX160 while using if the battery gets low as it has to be connected to the USB C port of the DX160.
