Mayflower Electronics Objective2 Headphone Amplifier

- The unit looking great. It is very small and compact. Easy to hide it on the desk.
- This little, simple in use amp runs everything i can throw at it.

Avantree DAC02 Digital to Analog Audio Converter
- I also like its small size. I can tuck it out of sight.
- Using this little DAC as an interface between a TV with optical output and a small amplifier with only RCA inputs fits my requirement perfectly.
- I like this little box a lot and I hope it proves to be reliable.
- This little box did the trick plus it is power by a USB plug and the new TV had USB ports on the back.
- Great little piece of kit that allowed me to reorganize my A/V set up for the better.

What customers say about "Features"
Mayflower Electronics Objective2 Headphone Amplifier
- I have endless audio files on my computer, so I plug the Signstek DAC into the desktop, then into the O2 amplifier, and the sound is excellent.
- I paired it with a evergreen 3.5mm cable and my hd650 and the sound quality was amazing.
- Unit is very easy to use. There no unnecessary inputs. Just all that I need.
- O2 can be used both in desktop mode and portable mode. This is useful when you want to carry your music around.
- The only thing i wish this had was RCA Ports in the back. Honestly i thought this came with that option.
Avantree DAC02 Digital to Analog Audio Converter
- The sound quality is excellent, and the separate volume control on the Avantree is a good feature to have.
- Very happy with this DAC unit , its a very well designed unit and all the needed cables were provided.
- Volume control was a really nice plus, as the full output from my TV via the digital output was louder than I would like.
- The volume control on the DAC made it easy to dial down the sound level to the headphones to an enjoyable level.
- Very hard to use and understand. Bad feature set.
