Amazing sound quality, worth every penny!
Thanks to TAS first super fast very next day delivery, packing was very well taken care of.My first transaction with Tas and it went very well super happy.keep up the good work. Still very early to give musical experience but I owned odi go link and this is quiet some thing big in dimensions.Has much more features to play with. Filters are some thing worth listening as they do make subtle diffrence but still need to give some time before I can have initial impressions.
This is just to give a pat to TAS guys for making my first deal with them memorable.
It has enough power to drive some heavy headphones, I liked it's slightly warmer and analogue sound signature. Build quality is good except usb port is a little wobbly but didn't had connection issues. Supports 4.4 and 3.5mm jack. Looks good in black and golden accents with faux leather back. No complaints for sound quality. Shipment arrived on time & received a surprise gift of coffee and letter for theaudiostore. Nice gift wrap.
I've been running my Kiwi Ears Quintets directly from my MacBook, and looking for a DAC to improve. Saw good reviews about the Onix Xl1, and ordered from TAS as soon as it was available. The DAC is a solid to hold and looks well made. Bit larger than others, but it's mostly for use with my laptop, so no issues for me. Switched my IEM's to 4.4 balanced, and the sound is great, with a distinct improvement from running it off the Mac 3.5 earlier. With my limited judgement I would say it adds a bit of warmth to the bass, and also tames a bit of the higher end for the Quintets. I find in high gain mode, the imaging and separation seem to get a slight boost, but maybe that's just me. Very happy with my purchase and would totally recommend!

Let customers speak for us
from 5582 reviewsIt was such a great MP3 player for the price. There was enough space as 32 GB memory card was provided. Also, we can read e-books in text format. It's so convenient during travel. FM radio is also present. Lot's of features in that small gadget ❤️.

The ear tips are good for starters and do have variety so I'm sure you'll find something comfortable. It can revive your interest in your old IEM's don't expect much as they are just there to deliver comfort to your ears.
New experience with the iem
Amazing sound very addictive ear phones might have been perfect if they came with c type connector
Build quality and audio clarity

Kudos to makers/seller for making it to available.
Purest form of audio hearing experience with this cable.
Happy with the purchase.

The build quality of this cable is top-notch. I’m using it with my HD560S connected to a laptop via Apple Music, and the difference is noticeable. The bass feels tighter and especially welcome improvement for openback headphones and there's a clear boost in instrument separation and overall clarity. Upgrading to a balanced connection has definitely proven to be a worth while decision.

The Hisenior Mega5EST is a reference-quality IEM tuned with taste and subtlety. It doesn't shout for attention but rather invites you to listen deeper. If you're looking for an IEM that balances technical excellence with musical emotion, this one is a rare gem in the hybrid space. A true “listen for hours, forget the gear” experience.

This is the best MP3 player you can get for this price.

I'm new to the world of IEMs and this one was bought to try how it feels. Trust me, it won't disappoint you. Double the value compared to headphones of the same rate.

Budget king SMSL RAW MDA1. Very versatile music dac & headphone amp. Fully satisfied. Being an audiophile I was searching for best budget one got this from The audio store. Thanks for timely delivery. Nothing can match it at this price range period.

Works well with my Moto Edge 50 Pro. Other DAC's would have a lot of interference and static, the Moondrop Echo A has none. Audio is clear and the connector does not heat up at all. Battery life isn't impacted as well.
The build quality is excellent, cable is flexible and will fit in any iem carry case as well.

This is a great product with excellent sound quality. The bass is impressive and it's worth the money.

Beautiful and heavy duty balanced cable. Adds a weight to the music's bass i.e. tighter bass response.
Good product excellent sound well packed but delivery was delayed by two days.otherwise everything good.

Combo of cx31993 max97220 chip is more than sufficient to drive any iems
