Dear Head-Fi'ers,
we are very excited to be part of the Head-Fi community! For those of you who don't already know us, we at Sound Blaster have been manufacturing audio equipment for the PC for the past two decades. And now, with our new Sound Blaster E-series portable amplifiers, we are able to reach out to more of you who are passionate about audio.
The Sound Blaster E1 is a USB DAC and portable headphone amplifier that connects to smartphones or tablets via a 4-pole cable or to your PC/Mac via USB. With a built-in 106dB DAC and 25 hours battery life, you will get hours after hours of great music. We have made the Sound Blaster E1 super affordable so that you can start experiencing High Resolution Audio without burning a hole in your pocket!
The Sound Blaster E3 is a USB DAC and Bluetooth headphone amplifier that connects to smartphones and tablet via Bluetooth on top of USB connectivity to your PC/Mac and supported iPhone (using lightning connector) and Android phones. With a built-in 112dB DAC and an 8 hour battery life, enjoy pristine audio even while on the move without tangling cables. What's more, it turns every analog headphones into a wireless headset!
Lastly, and most importantly, our flagship Sound Blaster E5 which so many of you have expressed interest in owning one. We are very close to releasing the product and would like to take this opportunity to update everyone on where we are with the launch. As the demand for the SB E5 has exceeded our expectations, we will be rolling out the Sound Blaster E5 in stages:
