  • Precise, articulate presentation, Good level of insight, File compatibility, iPhone and Xperia compatibility, Compact size,
  • Doesn't offer the true portability battery operation should, Lacks the quality feel expected at this price, Class leaders offer more transparency and spaciousness,
  • The PHA-3AC is a fine performer. It has a pleasing blend of strengths, which make listening to all types of music a pleasure. If you're in the market give this one a listen...

  • Klinkt erg prettig, Veel aansluitingen, Werkt eenvoudig
  • Niet portable, Digitaal alleen op Xperia en iDevices, Duur
  • Sony heeft een degelijk klinkend product in de markt gezet met de PHA-3AC. Er zitten echter een paar gekke kanten aan. Allereerst is het geen portable dac. U moet de dac blijven voeden via usb. Daarnaast werken niet alle Android-telefoons. Dat vinden we j...

  • Abstract:  Er is een heuse hype ontstaan rond hoofdtelefoons én de bijhorende accessoires. Combineer dit met Sony's nieuwe push rond hi-resaudio, en je krijgt een heel interessante combinatie van de MDR-Z7, PHA-3AC-versterker en NWZ-A15-Walkman.Het duo dat we hier...

  • Разборчивость; высокая дотошность; широкий спектр форматов; совместим со смартфонами
  • Не самая качественная отделка для этой цены; уступает лидерам прозрачностью
  • Хороший ЦАП, хотя и не самый сильный в своем классе...

  • Felfri ljudkvalitet och praktiska ingångar gör Sonys lilla förstärkare till ett attraktivt alternativ för alla som vill ha så bra ljud som möjligt i hörlurarna
  • Den behöver definitivt batteridrift och är dessutom alldeles för dyr
  • Även om priset är i högsta laget så finns det inte mycket att klaga på när det gäller funktioner och ljudkvalitet. Jag skulle nog föredra versionen med batteridrift, då blir förstärkaren plötsligt bärbar och mycket mer praktisk. Under alla omständigheter...

  • Strøken lydkvalitet og nyttige innganger gjør Sonys lille forsterker til et attraktivt valg for alle som vil ha best mulig lyd i hodetelefonene
  • Den trenger definitivt batteridrift, og i tillegg er den alt for dyr
  • Mens prisen er i høyeste laget, er det lite å utsette på funksjonalitet og lydkvalitet. Jeg vil nok foretrekke versjonen med batteridrift, for da blir den plutselig bærbar og langt mer anvendelig enn AC-versjonen. Uansett er Sony PHA-3AC en seriøs DAC me...
