Honestly, I hope they suck. I'm going to feel like a real idiot if they're great, because I JUST got an O2/ODAC combo.

Just ordered the V-moda m100 from amazon I just want to try them out and see if I prefer them to the hd 650 and will end up returning the one I don't want.

LOL, well the O2/ODAC combo is a lot smaller, and less to lug around.  I've been seriously thinking about it, except that I just picked up an HRT Headstreamer for $65 shipped.

[size=small]Double Your iPhones Battery Life.

The proprietary J-FET OP-AMP amplifier is powerful enough to drive two pairs of standard headphones or one pair of professional monitoring headphones while maintaining vacuum tube quality sound making the HP-1 the ideal choice for audiophiles and music lovers alike. The dual mini-jacks are conveniently located on the bottom of the case for easy access. Unrestricted iTunes Sync. With full USB pass through capability this case will allow you to sync flawlessly with iTunes without the need to remove the iPhone. The mini USB input also increases your options if you are in need of an emergency charge but do not have access to a dock connector cable. Innovative Design. The i.Fuzen HP-1 takes advantage of the features and style of the iPhone 4/4S. The relatively sleek case accentuates the iPhones distinctive lines while minimizing the increase in overall size. The HP-1 is available in white and black allowing you to easily match the case to your iPhone. Cell Phone Case Features:. Proprietary Auzentech Headphone Amplifier. Dual Headphone Output port to share your listening with your friends. ZX-Driver provides Ultra-Low Distortion and Max 180mW output power. J-FET OP-AMP to provide Vacuum Tube like sound output.

I actually use the i.fuzen hp-1 #, and i would say that it's a great deal. i got mine for $80 (cuz it's v.2), and it used to be around $150. plus, the seller sonic electronix is an authorized dealer, so you get the warranty! it's really convenient, the battery life is surprisingly good, and it's likely plentifully powerful for your headphones. whatever others may say about this amp, it definitely is a huge improvement from straight off the iphone.

I got it used off a good friend of mine.  He wasn't thrilled about it, and has a whole bunch of DACs, so I got it for a song.  More or less new too, as he got it for a review and it's only got a few hours on it. 

 
LOL, wasn't being greedy or anything.  If it was a public deal, would have posted it for sure.

Maybe some of you thread followers haven't heard but Schiit just released a $99 amp Magni and a $99 dac Modi. Not any real reviews out yet. It's not an official deal...and yet, if they are as good as they look, they will be a great deal  none the less. Seems like the kind of thing people coming to this thread might want to know about!

Yeah I think you're right. And I love that you used the phrase "Schitt quality." hehe

HA!!! Love it!!

Well I'm in, was gonna save up for an Asgard but I think this will do very nice!! It'll be my first desktop amp and ill use them with my D5000's and MMX 300 from Beyer.

Also does anyone here own or have listened to the Creative Aurvana Live? Still on sell at Amazon for $59 and I've heard tins of great things about them and how they are basically mini D2000's is this true??

Excellent, good to know!! It's a great design and concept and I hope they do this for the iPhone 5. Thanks for the info and link.

 

[earphiler]

I got it at $410 with $50 amazon gift card included, and 10% off 100+ on the price of the headphones ($360, calculated that way with gift card) - 10% (36 bucks) = $324
 
Did pretty well huh?
 
I really really want to off load my udac2-hp and hd595's and get O2+ODAC for about break even and be done with it!
 
i have a ra1 clone 4556 amp altoid tin on the way. Maybe I'll keep it, maybe I'll have to put it up on here.

 The CAL! uses the same drivers as the Denon 1001's from what Ive been told. Definitely not the D2000s, I know this from experience because I have both (don't have the 1001's so I can't confirm that, but its just what Ive read)

Not bad at depending on the condition! They also have the d7000 for $899 new which is the cheapest you will find them. Great cans but pretty expensive.

Would you say they're worth the $60 new?
