Really nice portable dac/amp with some nice features.

Best Ive ever owned... If you get a set, get a DAC along with them... makes them even better.

I use this cable to connect dac to headphone amp. Works flawlessly.

I was suprised how this small DAC/AMP beautifully sounded. Worth every penny.

Best headphones I own.

First of all i'm no audio expert. IMHO this is one of the best portable dac/amp combo. Sound wise, this little thing produces clean, clear and crisp audio. Some people may contradict me to what i am going to say, but it drives my Senn HD650's to enjoyable levels of listening. Again this is subjective, as i listen in moderate volumes. No regrets in purchasing this.

I have been using the PST8 power station for about two weeks now to replace my $10 cheap power strip. I mainly bought it to attempt to resolve an audible buzzing noise in my headphones when connected to a desktop headphone DAC/amp. After plugging the DAC/amp directly into the PST8, the buzzing noise went away entirely. This was with both the digital filter outlet as well as one w/o filtering. Either way, I'm pretty confident the PST8 is delivering much cleaner power and that it resolved my specific issue. Happy with the purchase, although note this is much bulker than it appears in photos.

For the price this dac/amp is a bargain. I use it to drive my Sony MDR Z1R headphone and my Sennheiser IE 900 IEM. Wired connection sounds better than the bluetooth connection but all the features this product offers makes this a must have. Just buy it you will be happy. This is audiophile bargain

Splitting XLR from computer DAC (Schiit Gungnir) to headphone integrated amp receiver (Schiit Ragnarok) and to TV entertainment center processor (Emotiva XMC-1). Does the job with 0 noise or issues. Clean signal to both. Works!!!
