Nice tip, never crossed my mind to try that route! thankyou

I take it all those ALO RX's for sale though are the same people going for a TTVJ or Pico Slim perhaps?

I take it you meant "JH" as in Jerry Harvey and not "JP" ?
If so i guess that does say something as i suppose Jerry gets to try them all i would of thought and i would not go wrong if golden ears Mr.Harvey likes the sound of the RX with the 13's.

Will lurk around the sale threads and see what comes up.

Thanks again

My mistake, should of twigged when he said JP!

Still will pursue a second hand RX if the price is right come the time, will be a good way to try my first portable amp.

Wish we had canjams in the UK

Very happy with my RX and Edition 8 combo. I have owned the Lisa III, Iqube and Zim SMIV. To me this sounds a level better. Now if the TTVJ is close or better, I will buy one.

Reassuring to hear John2e, do you happen to know if the RX could be ample to listen with a pair of K702's by any chance, just curious, would be icing on the cake if a portable amp was able to do that.

The Pico slim does not come into the mix for you then as you mention the TTVJ amp?

if there's any TTVJ slim user here can help me with this.
I wonder if there's any sound degradtion when switching to higher gain?
Or it only provides a larger voltage?


I have not observed any sound degradation, but there is an impact of reduced battery life with higher gain settings.  I have verified this with Todd Green.

I recently purchase the TTVJ Slim and oddly I'm not hearing any dicernable difference when listening amped or unamped. I'm starting to wonder if my unit is defective, though I doubt it.
