Fun and solid mids, peter gidenlöf of pain of salvation sounds really nice on the be album thats on while writing this. I guess ill keep this babies for portable use! Didnt mind the recent discount at a local dealer here in stockholm either! |

Tonally, i feel the sound is a lot calmer on the pa2v2 than out of the dap (zen micro). It also gives me a chance to use my big koss pro4aat if im in that mood. I can really recommend the pa2v2. |

A fellow head-fier was nice enough to do mine for a very small amount of money using Mogami mini-quad cable - much better quality and better sound, and more convenient because it's shorter. |
