Graham Slee Voyager, or GoVibe PPK came into my mind.

Hey you're right, this thread will be great stickied.

That thing is spectacular. I can't believe I only paid RM220 for it.
Tried it with my Grado SR60i. With bass boost on it's even better.

Ran out the stock battery, it went up to 25 hours. I can extend the battery life of my Teclast T51 by 4 hours too (by turning the amp on the player all the way down and use the LO port for the cMoy).

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?

Sorry for the low quality, but here it is!!



I can't find those wide rubber bands anywhere! Seems to come across the a lot when I don't need them, and then suddenly disappear when I do.

It's not the bulk, it's the way the rig looks that can cause misunderstandings.

Kinda worrying but funny at the same time. I was expecting one of them to go up to me and asking some questions. I guess with my IEM hooked up to it they kinda let me pass. But the similarity to an explosive and a detonator device is quite scary. I think any good security officer would ask me about it, rather surprised that they didn't.

Oh well, if the rig passes through without any suspicion, I would be glad. Else, it would be quite a funny experience.

Anyways, back into topic. I think that this amp has somewhat cure my desire for a Future Sonics Atrio. It can make the Brainwavz M1 quite the air pumper. In fact, I'm more inclined into getting an IEM like the Hifiman RE0 than the Atrio.....for now at least. The bass of the Atrio would be nice, but since giving my Grado to my dad I would have nothing to rest my ears from bass if I got the Atrio and sell the M1.

The Atrio would be great for a bass fix without an amp though, so it is still in my priorities list for IEM, but I think it just went 2nd place after the RE0 (or similar IEM). Thanks to the JDS Labs cMoyBB v2.03.

That's an interconnect, and if you're going to buy the JDS Labs cMoy, you're gonna have to buy one because they're not included. I bought mine from wotiyo (a forumer), he made them. Some people even buy new ones to replace the stock ones that may come with their amp. Supposedly they give better sound quality. Never tried though. never really believe in these 'cable thingies'. I believe that as long as it connects properly and no clicks, crackles and pops can be heard, it's good.

Save up for the new one la, hehe. I bet it's going to cost twice as the v2.03.

P/S: This is turning into an amp discussion thread rather than a recommendations thread.

You may also want to look at the new Fiio E11. Cheap, compact and practical with the famous bass boost feature. which adds bass and warmth. Also the one I have, the JDS Labs cMoyBB. After a while it does warm up and able to tame the highs of my dad's Grado SR-60i, especially with the bass boost. Not very good looking though (depending of your definition of style, and your rig). If you can find Meier Audio Corda XXS second hand at a cheap price, it will also be good. Was gonna buy it once, but never did. A Jaben staff gave me opinions on it, and it seems to tone down the treble area quite noticeably he says.

It's not a question of whether you can, it's whether you want to or need to.

Dudes, need help. The HO of my Teclast T51 is getting worse and worse. The left side can sometimes be muffled and sometimes will produce a lot of noise. The LO is fine. So I'm thinking instead of ditching the T51 I'd get an amp for it.

Therefore I am looking for a portable amp. Very portable amp, so it has to be small and light an doesn't look silly when hooked up to the T51 and put inside my pocket. It has to be under RM200. Of course it has to have volume control as well. With or without EQ function, doesn't matter but would be a bonus.

Thinking of something like the E6 but I'm looking for others to consider as well. If anyone is letting go of theirs for a good price I'm willing to buy....in January though. But if it doesn't fit my criteria I won't buy them (like too big or something).

Recommend me something that will add warmth and bass to an otherwise bass lean and bright Dynamic driver IEM.

Price is below RM500.

What is that and where can I find out more about it/buy it?

I don't suppose you have it?
PM me if you do.
