These days there is no need to put up with substandard sound when you’re travelling. With a pair of headphones and a suitable device to drive them, you can enjoy audiophile quality just about anywhere. But that device should not be just your phone or computer. They have low quality, noisy headphone outputs … if they even have one at all. A portable headphone amp and DAC – Digital to Analogue Converter – can take a digital signal from your notebook computer, tablet or phone, and produce a high quality and powerful analogue signal to drive just about any set of high-fidelity headphones.
At Addicted To Audio we carry portable headphone amps and DACs from some of the finest specialist brands in the world, such as Astell&Kern, ALO Audio, Audeze, Final Audio, FiiO, iFi audio and Grado. You may not be familiar with some of those brands, but they’ve got a quality experience in store for your ears.
There are two great ways to buy portable headphone amps and DACs. The best way for most people is at a quality retail outlet in your city. That way you can have a listen, try some out, see which of them feel like a good “fit” for you. But if you’re confident that you already know what you want, consider purchasing your device direct from us at Addicted To Audio. We are an authorised New Zealand reseller for all our products. We provide full service and after sales support. And we ship fast.
