Increasing the volume of headphones on a PC is of paramount importance for music listeners and gamers. The pre-installed speakers in a computer may not be sufficient to provide the required thrust of volume.
If you require a high intensity of sound and you are not satisfied with the quality of sound, you will require a headphone amplifier.
For wired connections, you can use USB cables or adapters, whereas Bluetooth is the viable option for wireless connections. Secondly, you will have to connect the amplifier with a direct power source.
The connectivity of amps has been a major issue in the past. However, the manufacturers have given great importance to the connectivity issues.
A headphone amplifier is a low-powered digital audio output device. Headphone amplifiers are portable devices and sometimes come embedded within a digital audio device, such as in headphone jacks.
Tube headphone amps are also called vacuum amps/vacuum tubes because they amplify sound by using vacuum tubes that control electrical current.
Remember that high-end amps are not necessarily the best. They may have a brand name attached, but that doesn’t necessarily mean better quality or power.
As the name suggests, a portable music player is a mobile device that allows users to play music (or recorded audio files) while on the go.
A Digital to analog converter (DAC) is a device that converts a digital audio signal into an analog audio signal which can then be sent to a headphone amp.
Headphone amplifiers are necessary for those who need to up their digital sound game.However, not everyone needs this incredible piece of equipment.
That being said, a class A amp is an excellent low-noise solution for you.

With the XQ50 Pro, Xduoo has fixed all the things that were missing in the original and still kept the price tag less than most of its competitors.
Overall the Idun presents a true maturity for Kinera, without it leaving the identity it has forged, instead it builds upon it and refines it. Holistically from the improvements made in the quality of the case, the cable, the tuning it’s a major step forward.
I find the Tin Hifi T4 a competent and good IEM, and I’m actually very happy with adding it to my collection. It’s the right type of sound signature for what I enjoy and I’m happy to recommend it at the introductory price, and even a strong consideration at the regular retail price.
I may come across slightly negative in this review of the KXXS, but that’s really when I am comparing it to the Kanas Pro, which is one of my most favorite In-Ears. It’s such a great IEM for the price – in terms of sound profile, build, comfort, and design that I find it hard to beat.
What really gets my attention about this product isn’t the assumption they use 10 grammy awards producer to tune the 2PRO but the fact its one of the few hybrid TWS iem, not just that but the fact that they use high-quality Knowles balanced armature as well as promising coaxial dynamic drivers
I started out saying that I really liked the XD05 but couldn’t recommend the 05BL and now must change that statement to “while I can’t recommend the original 05BL, the Pro is well worth the spend and gives an already versatile device yet another input option”.
If you do not search for reference neutral sound source that sure can be too flat or boring for a lot of audio enthusiast, I think the Zerda can really give extra fun to your audio gear without affecting negatively it’s resolution.
We all want to have the best earbuds, but there is only so much that we can afford. Most of the best earbuds that are on our wish list are overpriced and way above our budget.
In today Bluetooth DAC-AMP market there plenty of offering in 100$ price range, but not a lot of choice in 50$ price range for audiophile searching a capable ultra portable Bluetooth sound solution at very budget price.
With Hifiman, we can always hope for supreme budget audiophile sound, because once they patent new audio drivers, it will most likely be use in their budget line up one day or another. The Hifiman HE400 planar headphones is the best example. But what about earphones?
ALPHA & DELTA is an earphones company from Singapore, mostly know for budget oriented earphones that offer tremendous sound value performance like their D6 and KS3 models that both use excellent micro dynamic drivers.
The XQ50 is being marketed by Xduoo as a bluetooth receiver for upgrading older gear to be Bluetooth ready, but it has a hidden talent as well that may make it more interesting to many in a different capacity.

Overall Impressions: The clean and intricate FH5 vs the rich and full-bodied FA7.
The more I compare the two, the more I am falling in love with FH7. How about you ?
Both are made exceptionally well in terms of build quality and I don’t have any real complaints with any of them, but FA7 are looking just a bit extra juicy (colorful shells, clear resin, just yummy!).
FiiO have released an interesing model for those who care about price and quality ratio. Just add some interesting headphones, such as Sennheiser 6×0 or Meze 99 (and this list can be long) and you will get a great desktop setup that will please your hearing with quality sound
The King Pro is a detailed sounding iem that takes on a warm and smooth approach. It is able to showcase an organic sonic performance that has great musicality. The sound is excellent for a fatigue-free long listening session
