It actually does have all that included (just FYI).Nah, that site wont pay the tax, fees. I've pre-paid Amazon for that. I dont wanna struggle with customs. Plus I did paid EUR 72 but packing cost extra EUR 12. No problemo
For some European countries yes. For me no. Thanks anyway.It actually does have all that included (just FYI).
Fair enough I was going from my own experience hereFor some European countries yes. For me no. Thanks anyway.

Damm that's a great price. Well to late now it's arriving tomorrow from amazon.£62 here. Ships from within the UK.
Weird, probably a lemon/failing unit. UnluckyWell, I just encountered an issue with my A20h. I took a short break from listening with my DCA Aeon RT but I didn't take the phones off. Suddenly a blast of distortion and pulsing came out of nowhere, lasted about 10 seconds and then stopped. Waited a few minutes and then happened again. Isolated the amp from everything and confirmed it a third time. I started a return with Amazon and will be receiving a replacement soon. It's a good performer otherwise, hope the second one is ok.
Put my trusty SP200 back online and verified that it continues to be an outstanding amplifier.
That sucks for sure, maybe their quality control is not up to scratch. I have zero issues with mine and have it for almost a year now.I received my replacement A20h a week ago. Unfortunately, it has the same exact problem of intermittent blasts of distortion and pulsing. Last about 10 seconds and then quiet again only to return at random intervals. This is with the amp isolated. I just sit there with my Dan Clark Aeon RT on and listen for it. It is not subtle at all and I have caught it while playing music too. My SP200 in the same setup has no issue. So off it goes. I may try an L50 next (since I have an E50 already).
Are you sure it's not due to radiation?I received my replacement A20h a week ago. Unfortunately, it has the same exact problem of intermittent blasts of distortion and pulsing.

It's a pity, it would be interesting to know what's causing this, of course it can also be due to a sensitive power supply unit.That could be possible I suppose but I've had other amps with barrel connectors and none had the issue I am explaining. Could be the A20h is sensitive in my home. Anyway, it's no big deal. I have an A90 and the SP200 also. I was just thinking a $120 amp that drives an H6se well (which it did) would be nice to have around.
Is it clipping? Or is it the head phones?I received my replacement A20h a week ago. Unfortunately, it has the same exact problem of intermittent blasts of distortion and pulsing.

Sounds like a return is in orderBy the way, I checked the power supply is outputting 15v correctly. It is.
I'd say so (QC not withstanding). Only the gain in High is a bit low at +9dB.While I'm here, I may as well ask: is this still a good headphone amp in the sub-£100 price range?
It's also a good option over $100. The relay-based volume control alone with absolute channel equality is worth its weight in gold.I got it to work properly once, but it's gone back to "click click click" again. So yeah, I will return.
It was good while it was working though.
While I'm here, I may as well ask: is this still a good headphone amp in the sub-£100 price range? I liked this one because it has a low gain mode for iems and a totally black noise floor (even with the most sensitive iems i own).
Thanks
I was wondering about that actually. Why does a relay fire as the volume is being adjusted? The amplification is obviously digitally controlled via either the remote control of the rotary encoder...The relay-based volume control alone with absolute channel equality is worth its weight in gold.
