That is fine, as long as you bring it on to the plane cabin with you as hand luggage like fnkcow said, and not in your checked in luggage, it's how i got one to Wokei. The ban on the batteries in cargo has something to do with changing air pressure increasing the chances of a damaged Li cell catching fire coupled with being unattended in the baggage hold (not 100% sure and i'm too sleepy to google fu it ).

I've ordered this one on Thursday's night and price gone down $25 on very next day.

Finally got some time to properly try the kogan player. Honestly for the price it's really impressive. for a device under $50 this produce a much cleaner output on it's headphone out compared to an ipod touch using a line out dock. it's really something. The sound is really2 clean and quite detailed. Truly a great find. If they make the build quality better and better UI I have no problem to pay up to $200 for this sound quality.

An amplifier definitely makes things better, I'm using it with an RSA intruder and it's quite something. It's so small and light it feels like I've just attached an LCD screen to the intruder lols

It may sounds crazy pairing a $30 player with $700 portable amp but hey I just turned my good amp into a DAP with just $30 with hardly any extra bulk

That's one way of looking at it lol

Can anyone think of a closed headphone that can run off the Kogan without an amp and be enjoyable?  Sometimes IEMs & earbuds are just uncomfortable.  Hmm, I should remember to try my JVC S400 when I get a chance.

Budget? The Don Scorpio Dolphins @$99 @penonaudio is probably one if the best portable over ear you can get for the money. They're easy to drive.

If portability isn't important check out the Superlux and Takstar offerings. They both have their own threads here.

Mainly something to wear when walking the dog, which is mainly neighborhood with under a dozen cars within an hour or so's time, so noise isn't much of an issue.  I guess I should start going through my closed headphones to see what the Kogan can drive and what it can't, have half a dozen options I should try...  kind of wish I had the Kogan back when I was trying out the Mo-Fi.

Wokei, I found a headphone I get the feeling might amuse you.

  Yes of course, drinking from crystal gives an additional +15% in SQ, its a well known fact

This is fantastic. Also true

I use the HD380 pros with no problems. Sounds phenomenal!

If it weren't for the possible rain, I would have tested one of my cans. Will say that the Kogan and AX35 make Beck's Sea Change album sound amazing.
