Hi!

I've a Ultrasone PL 750 that don't really need head phone amp with my Soundcard. But with my musicphone, I think that a Portable Amp would be perfect, just to get a louder and nicer sound.

So I was considerating buying a "cheap" portable amp (60-80$) for my travel-time (no more than 5 hours/month, so I dont really need a great one, just a good one).

But, I'm going on vacation, I'll be somewhere with two nice 150W RMS speaker (Home made, good quality), without any amp :/. I was wondering if it was possible to find portable headphone amp that could do speaker amp job just for few days. Because, if I don't use those 150W RMS speaker, it would be like 2W RMS crappy speakers for 10 days :/. My aim is not to get a pure perfect sound on those 150W RMS speakers, but a correct sound, better than 2W crappy speakers.

Do you have any suggestion

?

PS: I've a Portative (old) Pre-Amp, it may help the amp (?)

Google for more reviews and better price on it before you buy.


Just noticed that you from Europe that could be a problem to get it cheap.

I believe that is for speakers only and is not portable (no battery option), though it does look small enough to be a portable HP amp.

1W RMS for headphone is considered very powerful, on the other hand you can find punny speakers rated at 5W RMS.

Why not just get a pair of active computer speakers if sound quality isn't of concern and you gotta travel with a pair of speakers?

Hum, maybe the best thing to do, is to get an affortable portable amp, and a separated cheap speaker amp (Or maybe a DIY ?) that don't need to be portable.

Or a non-portable amp that can do headphone and speakers, small size, light weight, and I would bring batteries to power him during the travel.

I can't bring speakers, because I'm traveling by train, so I am very limited with my bags :/

Yep, both the green and red are both headphone and speaker amplifiers
