I'm not an expert, but yes there is a small difference. Lossless music will be clearer, more crisp and detailed but if you're not a audiofile, you won't really tell the difference that much. But of course, not only the supported formats is important. An audio player, compared to a phone, is dedicated to music so the components inside will provide a better sound quality and less distortion. Some of them has a normal 3.5 audio jack with an aditionnal balanced port and/or a line/coax out. Some also provide the option to be used as USB Dac for your computer for example, which would output better audio than what your computers's sound card would offer.
I am trying to play a ipod hooked to a bose speaker system and to listen to the music by headphones, it doesn't come out of the speaker, is there a way to use this to run the earphones while still hearing the speaker?
Shipping not showing here for me in the UK either. It's been that way for a while now and has put me off buying at least one item - so if it is a deliberate thing then it's somewhat backfired in my case.
givemeyourshoesI just bought one of these from Jet.com using the 15% off your first three orders coupon to make it like $92 free shipping (not two day, but way better than waiting a month)
Quimetalrighty. Did a bit of reading off some head fi pages as well. This is said to be at par (or somewhat inferior) to schitt magni 2.
Thanks! Gonna buy this off from Lazada though. LOL
It is definitely powerful (drives k7xx with ease I use it under 9 o'clock most of the time). Fairly clear as well, I am using the stock tube so you might get a warmer sound with a different one. Gets extremely hot in the summer (30 Celsius + in Israel) but in the winter (under 15 Celsius) its only warm (Didn't try touching the tube I assume it get even hotter).
To conclude it is a really nice first amp for me pretty satisfied ! wanted the k5 since it a solid state and I would be able to stack it on top of the SMSL sanskrit.
