hey guys i posted about this before with minimal luck..

this is my current setup.. 80gb ipod classic -> alo dock out cable -> go-vibe 5-> ety er6i/grado 225

i want a smaller amp for my setup.. the amp is a bit bulky for my tastes.. could you recommend something smaller.. preferably "skinnier"..

thanks in advance..

also any opinions on the ibasso t2?

Maybe the Xin Supermicro. I beleive it's the smallest available. I haven't heard it myself though, so no comments on the sound.

i would totally get it just on the glowing reviews.. but the 9 month wait time is turning me off..

The Mini^3 is thinner (width ways) than a pack of playing cards, and only longer by about 2cm.

The amp is actually shorter than the cards, but the volume control sticks out quite a bit.

you think it would work well with my setup and my headphones?

To tell you the truth I haven't listened to it yet. I'm waiting for the batteries that I ordered to arive. (I underestimated shipping time from Israel

)

However, from the reviews I've read (I spent a lot of time researching this amp) it seems like a great little amp. One of the best in the ~$100 price range apparently.

I think nothing beats the Xin Supermicro for its size is to sound quality ratio.

Thumbs UP for Xin Supermicro.

i love the way it looks.. im wondering is it any good though? specfically for my grado 225s

Oops didn't read your post very carefully...

The PA2V2 has its strengths, but none of them really match up with my personal preferences. But it is a solid, well made product and won't break the bank either. its IMHO only marginally smaller than a govibeV

You could consider the Supermicro IV, Minibox-E, Tomahawk, etc.
