I'm in need of a new portable amplifier.
My E17 that I bought from here (used) has served me well, but it seems that it has died a noble death. It doesn't seem to hold a charge longer than a gnat's fart, and the LCD doesn't turn on at all.
I find myself in need of a new portable amp.
This would be used exclusively for travel (so likely not that often) so I'm not looking to spend a ton. My Beyerdynamic DT770s will be the headphones driven.
I'd like for it to have a battery life longer than a blink. That's really about it.
It will be driven by an LG G5 (not ideal, but it's what I have) so likely out of the headphone jack unless I can find something that works USB-C to whatever input it uses.
I thought about a FiiO X1, but see that it doesn't have an amp of its own so that likely rules it out.
I've thought about the FiiO A3 and the Little Bear B4 (which I know nothing about and have not seen on this site), but I'm curious about other recommendations.
One caveat: I'm traveling this weekend. Amazon Prime would be ideal.
