QUOTE(EightPhantomz @ Jul 3 2011, 05:08 PM) Gonna try that JDS labs cMoy on my ES7. The excitement. JDS labs definitely worth it. can boost bass to not so bassy phone even without bass boost on. And you can increase the power by using external power supply. If assuming that the hippo box shares common sound signature and power of hippo amp then the JDS labs cmoy definitely beats it. It's a clear winner here. QUOTE(calmshot @ Jul 3 2011, 08:51 PM) Try get energizer max battery or better get energizer lithium. Or if u use for desktop, can get universal power adapter , the spec as stated on the pdf instruction doc. John saber from jds said he will release a high end bb cmoy with internal battery in 2 months time, but the price will be 3x from current cmoy, code name c421. hi calmshot any info yet on the c421 such as casing and final price? When is the earliest we can see the info. I've been like waiting forever just to see their casing and price. Don't know which to get yet. Then can you update me before you do the bulk? I still haven't make a choice yet. It's either cmoy or c421.

QUOTE(tunertoobe @ Jul 4 2011, 08:07 AM) I've been following the C421. I like the internal shot of the amp. Looks good. Probably not as DIY looking as the cMoyBB. Added on July 4, 2011, 7:30 pmThis might be a very silly question, but after a trip to the bank, I have a concern about my rig, which is the Teclast T51 mated to JDS Labs cMoy, with wotiyo's interconnect. My concern is...........that it looks like a home-made explosive rig.  What with all that steel candy casing and exposed cable of the interconnect.  I get looks from security guards at the bank.  I'm leaving for Kuching on Wednesday, and I'm wondering whether I will be stuck at the scanner for a long time trying to explain myself to the airport security.  Has anyone ever brought rigs like that to the airport?  Don't worry, just put it in ur bags to pass through the scanner. They don't care much in the bags one. Just don't carry them cause they are metal sure to get caught. Just to be safe bring the receipt to id the products, and that's it. I really wanted to see the face of the security guards. Even if i'm them i also would thought that it is a bomb.

QUOTE(Illsense @ Jan 6 2012, 05:22 PM) Source : desktop Equipment : koss portapro Requirement : Budget : less than 300 Been looking at fiio E11, but it seems like it has to recharge and when recharging i cant use it? Is there any other options? Thanks in advance. What do you mean? Every portable amp have to be either recharge or change battery. At least they can recharge without taking the battery out is a strong point. I think the recharging can't use part already have been solved. Only the early version have it. Try check with fiio.

QUOTE(sheldonyong @ Jan 8 2012, 11:36 PM) Erm, what amp u guys recommend for budget around 400+-MYR with good instrument and details. No need portability as i wont bring these headphones out on the street... Thanks in advance ! Nwaguys o2 or c421. Most probably o2 self build or get from here will be cheaper.

QUOTE(Ban-kun @ Mar 4 2012, 12:25 PM) Yup, I'm sure it's abit more expensive, but they throw in a free NOS tube upgrade for my D1 if I order from them. When I asked Jaben via email they're not sure if theirs have the upgraded NOS tubes. So yeah, I was thinking, if I can have the tube upgrade, I wouldn't mind buying from the manufacturer's website. QUOTE(noobandroid @ Mar 4 2012, 02:57 PM) the tube aint free, it adds UD20 which is roughly RM60+, so they are selling some New Old Stock tubes to you, not free D1- USD199 D1 with NOS - USD 219 Oh stupid marketing tecnique. If u still want i think jaben can help u directly order but the price will be different from the one they selling.
