Pros: - Cheap

- Increased sound quality on my headphones at higher volumes

- Small and light, easy to afix to a portable device with a velcro strip

Cons: - Battery life is lower than my portable player: Cowon D2 gets about 40 hours, this E5 gets about 20 hours. Not really a concern.

- Buttons feel a bit cheap compared to the rest of the unit, especially the EQ slider for bass boost, but I won't be touching that anyways.

- Thin wires on supplied cables, I don't think they will last very long, but it's a given on a device this cheap.

Other Thoughts: Great little amp for the price, lets my Cowon D2 drive my AKG K-240 studio headphones without sounding like tin cans at higher volume.

Did not experience any hissing at all during my use with it, even with the E5's volume at max.

Bottomline: If you use some decent headphones this is a pretty good investment as a secondary amp for a laptop or PMP.

I am really happy with my unit so far. I am using it with a pair of Grado SR-80 headphones. They need an amp for full effect listening, and this does the job very well. It's small, well built and simply just a well made product.

Cons: The m-m cables that comes with it are sub-par at best.

Bottomline: If you are an audiophile on a budget looking for a headphone amp like me, this is the way to go.

I am looking forward to more products from FiiO in the future.

Pros: This amp is great if you want to increase signal strength coming out of your mp3 player, in my case my iPod touch! Very small so it doesn't get in the way and you don't need to worry about replacing batteries. It is also very cheap for what it is and does what it says it will do. I used mine so that I could play my iPod through some large speakers which I modified to include an aux input

Cons: The only con for me is the shipping time. It was a month before I got mine in the mail but this was because they ran out of stock. They must be in high demand...because they are so good!

Other Thoughts: It you have a set of really good headphones get these because they will increase quality. If u want to run your music through large speekers this is what you need. It's so cheap compared to others at retail stores!

Bottomline: Just buy one if you like music or if your a DIYer this is great to have in your inventory for future projects!! Cheap cheap cheap

Pros: This device is cool, it boost your sound and it's even has equalizer select (bass/flat), that one is a great gadget for you, i was very impresed by it's build quality, it is very good. You realy get better sound with this device and it's even louder so you can save your player battery life.

Cons: I have no cons things to indicate because i'm very happy with this cute little device.

Other Thoughts: You have to buy it if you are using like DJ's headphones for listening music on your MP3 player or phone because you get better sound quality and you get louder sound too.

Bottomline: If you like to listening to music you have to buy it because it is so useful and build quality is so great that you can't even believe maybe :)
