SMSL specializes in high-quality audio DACs, headphone amplifiers, and power amplifiers, with their own research, development, manufacturing, and marketing teams.
It is very efficient and clean sounding. I loved the amplification which is enough to drive demanding planar magnetic headphones. The functions and display is very intuitive. Overall a very good product.
Best DAC in this price...
Quality output have reached after using this DAC.
Thanks The Audio Store for providing quality product and safe shipping very fast.
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.
I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the SMSL RAW MDA-1, especially as someone who values Hi-Res audio and the transformative power of a great DAC+amplifier.
The build is solid, with a sleek, compact design that fits perfectly on my desk without taking up too much space. I love the variety of connectivity options—USB-C, coaxial, optical, and Bluetooth—making it easy to connect to my PC, gaming console, or even my phone. The Bluetooth feature is particularly handy for wireless listening when I want to move around without sacrificing sound quality.
One thing I’ve found is that it’s exceptionally well-suited for low to medium impedance headphones, delivering plenty of power and clarity. However, if you’re using high-impedance headphones, you might notice it struggles a bit with volume, so you may need an external amplifier for those. Also, while the 4.4mm headphone output is convenient, it’s not a true balanced design, which might be a letdown for audiophiles who prioritize that feature.
Given its price point, the SMSL RAW MDA-1 offers exceptional value, delivering high-end features and performance that punch above its weight class. It is particularly suitable for audiophiles and gamers seeking a high-quality desktop audio solution with both wired and wireless options. However, for those with high-impedance headphones or a preference for advanced sound-shaping features, it may fall short, potentially requiring supplementary equipment.
Whati expected that fullfill.best iem for beginners.bass is great
Best Budget IEMS. This was my first time buying this iems and i didnt got single complaint for this. its just good for this price point
New on this IEM journey and I must say they sound better than my 3x priced headphones.
I like the sound and clarity.
Coming from Juzear Defiant and Punch Audio martilo, I would say that this is the best I have till date. Excellent in terms of clarity and technicalities. Being a medium sized IEM it is very comfortable for long listening sessions. Kudos to TAS for their excellent service.
I visited the experience store at Pune and Pritham and his asistant were very warm and welcoming. They patiently explained the pro's and con's of the Hidizs and gave me alternatives to try like the Truthear Nova and Simgot Supermix. Experiencing the different IEMS helped me maake a solid choice of what I wanted.
Also took time to sample an open back Sennheiser HD660S and the Hifiman Sundara. Was able to clearly make out the differnce betweeen a planar magnetic and DD. That helped me know what my prefernces were. Truly enlightening experience ended with a great purchase in the HIDIZS MP145.
These are my first IEMs. After a bit of research, I decided to go with the KZ Castor Pro as my first IEM. I'm really impressed with the audio depth, the crispness of audio and the clarity and separation of instruments and vocals. The music feels much different than the usual TWS earbuds which I was using before! The packaging was good, and delivery from Audio Store was good! Glad to have officially entered the IEM clan!
The Audiocular Spark DAC is amazing and it really enhances the audio quality compared to using my IEMs directly on my PC. The build is excellent, durable and it also comes with a carrying case. The packaging and delivery were both good. Really glad I bought this from here!
Unbelievable this TANCHJIM Bunny Type-C DSP whenIwas unboxed and listen immediately lheard totally theatricale experienced.It'stotally mesmerized me in sounds. In this price unbelievable soundquality. That's why this TANCHJIM Bunny Type-C DSP is more value than itsprice. Thanks once again to Pritam ji for suggestingme so wonderful IEM.
I herd of them and brought them was concerned but the audiostore team was gental and the quality of product was superior
Sound quality is very very neat and clean and in depth. Best purchase ever.
It's an amazingproductforthe price
I purchased these during christmas- and my initial impressions were that these were packaged well, and felt very premium in hand, except for the cable.
The bazz is very lacking, and the iems are unusable without tuning. After tuning these sound full, and have beautiful clarity. Definitely recommend if you can tune them. Also very good for video editors and others who need stock audio
It sounds wonderful 👍
I am very satisfied with my purchase and currently enjoying hi-res audio with my iem. Best looking and build quality is also good under 1K
This is my first IEM. I like the way it sounds. Though I expected much better soundstage but it is good. After using this, I will definitely buy my second IEM. Trust The Audio Store, they delivered as expected. Actually someone suggested me on reddit to go with audio store and I will definitely recommend others the same.
