hello,
right now i am using NW-ZX2 (korean ver). it is nice and have enough power for everything but my dt770 250ohm (barely loud enough at 100%) and 600ohm version is just not loud enough.
so i need an amp. portable amp. i found locally fiio walkman line out adapter for something like 12$~.
i plan to buy locally. hanoi. vietnam. budget is 300$.
so i need an amp. my picks is:
- Cayin C5 (165$~)
- Xduoo XD-05 (223$~)
- Aune B1 (201$~)
what is not passed my filters:
- ifi micro ican, size. impossibru to efficiently stack with nw-zx2.
- fiio e18 (+dac), seems to be overpriced due to dac (which i don't need and can't use properly without ****load of cables. i need only amp). even if i can get it for 133$, not sure if it is worth it.
- oppo ha2, same as e18.
- sony pha-03, price. (900$? oh real...)
- chord mojo, price might be fine for that kind of device but it is quite hard to stack with due to the same issue as with fiio e18.
so... i checked http://www.headfonia.com/aune-b1-vincent/ ... Aune B1?
maybe there is something else to consider?
please recommend something / comment
