Sonic Impact T-Amp giant killer?

Flavor of the month not unlike those Toshiba cdp's.

Well, I like the flavor a LOT! :-)

Been using one of these to drive my AKG K-1000 headphones to some BEAUTIFUL music!!

And combined with a tube preamp (good advice on AA), it played some great music. The Teac Tripath amp is even better, a little more dynamic and detailed.

I bought one at Target about 8 to 10 months ago, after seeing the rave over at Audio Asylum.

They're inexpensive, I'll give them that. Are they a giant killer? Only if your giant is small.

I saw a suggestion at Amp Asylum to use it as a wireless patio system while entertaining friends. Mine will come back out of the box once it warms up enough to entertain.

a very special product indeed, magic with appropriately sensitive speakers and a good source/preamp/cabling. laughably inexpensive (i didn't say CHEAP), so few of those who equate expense with quality of sound will take it seriously.

forgot to also emphasize the importance of a good, outboard power supply (13.8V, 2A, regulated). the radio shack RCA to mini-jack adapter (#274-883) is also the best way to use your own cables IMHO, but then you'll need something to hold it down! sounds best when driven by a high quality preamp with it's volume control all the way up per the 6moons review. i'm itching to hear one with the omega speakers!
