    CNET Review

    The Good: Audiophile-grade headphone amplifier; elegant solid mahogany case.

    The Bad: You'll hear a loud pop through the headphones when you turn the RA1 on or off; only the RA1-HG model plays loud with non-Grado 'phones.

    The Bottom Line: This remarkable little amplifier brings out the best sound from your headphones.
