The wallwart is just a transformer (AC / AC adapter, output ~16VAC), according to the product page. The rest of the power supply, presumably linear and quite regulated, is on the inside. As for the exact type of transformer... it's a transformer, though I guess knowing its make and specs could be of some minor interest. Maybe somebody with the amp can enlighten us?

Xing Yuan brand
AC Adapter
Class 2 Power Supply
Model No YP-088
Output 16VAC 500mA
 
NOTE THAT IS NOT 16VDC IT IS AC

I would say that it fits what you would expect - probably the best sound quality you can expect to get at $99, but don't trade in your $400 amp.
 
 

I'm not happy with my Creek OBH-21 SE (noise). Think the Magni will play nice with my 4s > EACE > HD600?

It'll be fine, it would be better with the Modi, but you can always add a Modi later. I haven't tried the Magni but all amps can connect to a computer without a DAC.

Is it possible to use the he-400's with JUST the magni, into a computer? No DAC i mean, on a computer with an Asus Maximus V Formula (it uses supremefx iv as the onboard sound) How is it?

 
connect the amp to one of the analog audio outputs with an 1/8in. to RCA cable.

Will this amp improve the sound of my akg k550?
My source is a Ipod Classic using a Fiio LOD.

Damn... that's one sexy amp.

The volume knob seems a bit long.

The volume knob does look too long, but it's probably something they had to source pre-made in order to keep costs down.
 
Please hurry up and listen to it, Mike!

 

[HiFiGuy528]

it does look and feel great for $99.  it's going through a 48 hrs burn-in.  I'll report back.

 

[DefQon]

Damn that is quite small.

 

[autoteleology]

I bet they put weights in the amp to make it feel good like that.

Keep in mind that the enclosure is stainless steel, which would weigh quite a bit more than aluminum.
