Hii
Any reason why its only $20? At first I thought it was some kind of scam...guess not. Anyone know how the sound compares to the fiio e11? I'm tempted to buy one just because of the ridiculous price...

They have been discontinued, probably due to the fast decline of market. 
 
I can't directly compare to the e11, but I can say that I have been quite pleased with mine.

Yeah $20 is NOT a scam as it is from the maker, VentureCraft, themselves. I think Amazon overstock the thing and it is getting old, so their lost is our gain .

Just got these today. They are unreal in performance for $20.
 
Sounds as good as E07K. Will have Schiit Magni tomorrow for comparison.

Anyone have a successful modification yet? I have an Iphone 4.  Would love to be able to dock it into it. I got mine today. Tried it for a few minutes, and it sounded better than my Fiio 6 (at least I think so currently). Pretty great sound for $20, if it continues. 
 
Vloe, how did it compare to the Magni (which I have been looking at as well)?

hi guys how good is this amp? it says it will be great for mids and highs. How does it handle bass?
Also it wants to be as good as a iphone 4 sound wise.
 
is the 3gs just very bad?
Want to use it in combination with an nano/

I got my go-dap 3 today. I don't know if i got a bad one or it's just me. The sound signature did change (for the better) but the amplification is just not there (it sounds as loud with or with out it). I'm using it with a set of UE 6000 (50 Ohms DCR off, 1k Ohms DCR on) and Incase Sonic (32 Ohms). The test I've maid are with the DCR off and with a straight through cable (no mic or buttons). This is my first headphone amp and I don't have a point of reference any thoughts would be very helpful. I maid some modifications in order to make it work for my iPhone 4 and iPod classic (DREMEL and a cutting wheel). This is my first time posting I hope I'm doing it right.

Looks good. Can we see another photo like the last one? Theres a bit too much glare.

Try it for a few days and get used to it, then try your gear with out it.

It is ultra glossy. Let me know if this one is better. And thanks for the advise.

Very nice.  I am not sure what happened in your case in terms of the volume, but I guess it is a good thing your sound sig changed for the better.
