The T1 is more portable, but it is long discontinued.

How do you think the storm will work with jazz or acoustic music?

I think it would work fine. It's pretty neutral.

What about the T1 with jazz and acoustic music?

 

[Skylab]

It's been so long since I reviewed the T1 I really can't say.

I seem to recall my friend saying that there were still some new T1s for sale in Hong Kong, but I can't confirm anything.

I wouldn't bother with the T1 really.

It hisses for one, and there's a channel imbalance issue with a lot of them, which results in the right channel being 3dB louder than the left.

To top that off, the amp is not shielded fromRF interference, so you must prepare for a lot of incoming static if you use it in an area where a lot of RF activities take place.

It sounds pretty neutral, but congested as well, not very dynamic, and it lacks headroom.

The only thing it really has going for itself IMO is it size/thickness.

Personally, I found the Fiio and the average Cmoy running (The one I loaned then was running on OPA2227, I don't know anything else about it) to be a 'better' amps compared to the T1 based on a performance standpoint.

That looks neat. Anyone know where it can be bought and shipped to the US?

 

[nsx_23]

I hope they have colors other than pink.

Just read through that website. They don't do online shopping at the moment.

I believe Jaben (site sponsor, link on the left) stocks them - perhaps drop an email and find out?

 

[nsx_23]

I wonder if the price will come down if a few of us order them.

On that website, the price is $600HKD, which is about $84.50AUD. For your reference, 1AUD = 0.91USD
