Product Description
The Nuforce Icon Mobile, along with its accessories, allows the user to obtain better sound quality from mobile music players, smart phones and personal computers. The Icon Mobile also serves as a rechargeable, high-performance headphone amplifier with adjustable gain or stand-alone USB DAC with support for Skype, Messenger or similar microphones.Desktop Applications: 1. Connected to a computer via USB, the Icon Mobile can drive a pair of active, i.e., powered, speakers. 2. The external 3.5mm stereo input, when inserted, takes precedence over the USB DAC. This function allows the user to listen to music from sources such as an iPod without having to disconnect the Icon Mobile from the computer.Mobile Applications: 1. Due to cost constrains or power consumption considerations, mobile devices such as an iPod or smart phone do not incorporate high-performance headphone amplifiers. The Icon Mobile's optional iPod connector permits the user to bypass the iPod's volume control. The compact, lightweight Icon Mobile, which can drive a variety of headphones, connects to these devices via 3.5mm stereo input.

Icon Mobile is Amazing December 17, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is my first headphone amp ever and all I can say is wow! I recently purchased a pair of Alessandro MS-1 headphones and this amp brings out a huge depth and improved soundstage. It also really helps the bass come out on the MS-1s. These headphones are very balanced and the amp does not change that. It just makes all the frequencies come out so you can experience the full range and detail--even at very low volumes. I've had the amp running for about 30 hours so far and the sound just keeps getting better! Another plus is this amp is small and thin (nearly 1/4")--truly credit card sized so its great for the gym and on the go. It's very light too and smartly designed. Looks like it could be knocked about and still keep going. And the silver looks great with my macbook pro!
