I entered this hobby many years ago, and I came across Porta-Pro since whenever it was. Today, I got into it again, just because I wanted some High-Quality, High-fidelity phones for my children!
First thing first, I guess, Porta-Pro is very portable, small, flimsy looking, but it is very demanding of power. You will want something of adequate power to drive it And to squeeze the better out of it. I am giving my kids my older Dx300 players and I tried other more common stuff, but looking at them, I could only shook my head. They are not only overpriced in comparison, but is also pale in performances in bass articulation, details separation and layering.
Yes, it doesn’t have the soundstage as I would like , and I like 800S soundstage. But just look at the price, the form, the portability. It is an insane choice for kids to start out their music loving journey. They can now be telling the parts within their music and gears with less confusions
