How would it perform with my iPad & Hippo Box+ amp? What's the best thing about this headphone? Bass? Comfort level?

Bring your iPad + LOD + Hippo Box+ and head down to the following and ask to try the TMA-1.

Tong Lee at LowYat Plaza, ask for Jenny.

MacStudio at Bangsar Shopping Centre, ask for Justin.

and last but not least, the boys at Jaben!

Would love to but I'm far away in Cyberjaya doh.gif Feel like changing back to headphones, lazy to plug in my Futuresonic Atrio's into my ears haha.

How much is the TMA-1 btw? How's the bass?

Is it heavy? Would it work well with the Hippo Box+?

Really light...  won't feel you have it. To be honest, this one no need to use amp.

I see. So the Hippo Box+ won't improve that much? I'll probably use it with my iPad or Gumstick. Have to sell my futuresonic atrio m5 first tho. Hopefully i'll be satisfied. Any owners around Cyberjaya? Wanna try it tongue.gif

Haha it will work fine with the Hippo Box+ mate. I was reading a review, the guy said the TMA-1 is good without the amp, but with amp it's amazing.
*
I see, I guess I'll use the Hippo Box+ if I need more bass biggrin.gif Well, I'm buying the TMA-1 for two things, 1 is the look, and the other is the bass icon_rolleyes.gif Will go to Plaza Lowyat and try it soon smile.gif

I've worn these a few hours straight, travelled in them, walked around in them and i have to say they're quite comfy, the pressure on your ears isn't too great so it didn't make my head ache or my ears feel very hot after long use. The hinges at the cups are quite loose so it doesn't put too much force no matter how your ears are positioned. Even w/o proper cushioning on the headband i don't really feel any problems. My only gripe would be that when i rested my head in the car i could feel the phones shift a bit and i have to readjust the position, a con from it applying less pressure i guess and maybe because they're on ear and not over ear.
*
I see, thanks a lot for the clarification. I like it when the headphone doesn't make your ears hot. It's very durable too I guess, since it's DJ Headphone? smile.gif

Arghhhhg wanna sell my Atrio's ASAP sad.gif

Bro, what is your source  hmm.gif

Gumstick. Sometimes iPhone/iPad. Currently having Hippo Box+ amp with me smile.gif

It got effect on the bass, but i not really know how to say about the feeling, just like others people said it will tighten the bass.
E7 is a AMP + DAC and E11 is a PURE AMP. got Different bro.

I see, mind telling me the differences? hmm.gif

Never test before the E7, Bro E1-AKG is the right person to answer this  smile.gif
As I know since E11 is a pure AMP, it is power than the E7 as E7 mainly on the DAC function.

I see, I don't understand what's the differences of pure AMP and DAC hmm.gif

Got my TMA-1 just now from David, unfortunately he poisoned me with the E11. Now I have to get it sad.gif

Haha. Happy so far but I guess it needs some burn-in to properly rock! Thanks to David btw smile.gif
