Daniel

Superb device with excellent build quality and a robust case. Don't be fooled by the small size - it has everything a larger model offers. Wonderful musicality, especially when paired with the Qutest case. It rises to the top of my collection of already high-quality headphone amplifiers.
The price is substantial, but once the headphones are on your ears, enchanted by the musical message being delivered, you don't think about it anymore.
A very good purchase.

Superbe appareil bien fini et boîtier robuste, ne pas se fier aux dimensions réduites, il a tout d'un grand. Superbe musicalité surtout associé au boîtier Qutest. Se hisse en tête de mes différents amplis casque déjà de bonne facture.
Le prix est conséquent, mais une fois le casque sur les oreilles enchantées par le message sonore diffusé on n'y pense plus.
Un très bon achat.

Eco-contribution included in the sale price.
