Looking into buying my first portable amp, and I have about $100 to spend. From what I've found the iBasso T3 and PA2V2 seem to be thought of quite highly. They will be powering ATH-M50s, RE0s, and Klipsch S4s. Any thoughts on one doing working better for me? Thanks.
I've had both, used to give the RE0 more juice. I had the T3 for several months and it provided a bit more fullness for the RE0. It is super-clean sounding, and but doesn't warm up the RE0 much, if that is what you are wanting. I only had the PA2V2 for about one week, realizing that it is too big (to me) to be very portable with the Sanza Fuze -- it's bulky. But, it did pump a bit more warmth to the RE0, I felt like, but not significantly more.
The T3 is 2x the price, but it is a very elegant, very portable, very nice amp if you are wanting ultra-portability. If you will be keeping it at home most the time, the PA2V2 can give you 90-95% of what the T3 gives you at 50% the price.
